The Alberta Society of the DeafBlind (ASDB) is dedicated to supporting and empowering DeafBlind people across Alberta. We promote accessibility, independence, communication, inclusion, and connection by providing information, resources, services, and opportunities that help DeafBlind individuals participate fully in their communities.
ASDB provides programs and services that support DeafBlind individuals in living independently, staying connected, and participating fully in their communities. Our services include Support Service Providers (SSP), Deaf Interpreting, information and resources, community programs, advocacy, and accessibility support.
There are many ways to support and connect with the DeafBlind community. Become a member, volunteer, support ASDB programs, attend community events, or make a donation. Together, we can help build a more accessible, inclusive, and connected Alberta for DeafBlind people.
Explore helpful information, guides, forms, videos, policies, and other resources for DeafBlind individuals, families, support providers, and the wider community. Our resources are designed to help promote communication, accessibility, independence, and connection.
