The British Columbia Association of the Deaf-Blind is an association for independent persons who are Deaf-Blind.  Run by persons who are Deaf-Blind for others who are also Deaf-Blind.
Our goal is to have fun, but it takes a lot of work to get to the fun part.  So, we plan, organize, sponsor and partake in a large variety of activities.  So, we have meetings.  There are General Meetings every two to three months (October, January, March and June).  There is a Board of Directors meetings every month to generate ideas, to finalize arrangements and plan activities.  We have six directors: President, Vice-President, Treasurer, Secretary, Social Director and Member-At-Large.
Our general meetings are always entertaining, we are never a tedious group.  We discuss, argue, suggest and do fun things.  We are at the ripe old age of eight  with a membership count of forty.
We are always accepting new members.  It does not matter if you are Deaf, Blind Deaf-Blind or “normal."  We would like to have more people join our association.
