Welcome to the Multiple Disabilities & DeafBlind Division (Division 3). We fulfill the mission of Division 3 through collaboration with other AERBVI divisions and partnerships with organizations sharing similar goals. Members assist in the development of professional standards, support of legislative and educational initiatives at the state and national levels, and we promote the understanding of the impact of multiple disabilities/DeafBlindness upon all aspects of life. Our division shares and encourages members to engage in meaningful professional development opportunities and to add to the breadth and depth of knowledge in our field through research and writing.
