Introducing our NEW awareness initiative for National Deafblind Awareness Month!
Beyond Barriers: Expressions for All Senses
This year we are excited to announce #CreateAndConnect, a social media campaign that allows organizations, supporters, allies, and those with lived experience to choose and share their own creative expression or activity that fosters global connection, awareness, and joy, sparking meaningful conversations, and shared experiences.
Examples of creative expression:
- Tactile art that engages the senses
- Cooking as a medium for storytelling and connection
- Yarn bombing – transforming everyday spaces into vibrant displays ofcolor and texture
- Dancing that allows for movement
Be creative – creative expression can be made of anything!
Showcase these moments on your social media and using #CreateAndConnect to help spread awareness. Leading up to June we will be sending out tips and ideas on how to make this campaign a success!
