Wheelock Deaf Center
Dear Chair Kinitsky,
The Boston University Wheelock Deaf Center emphatically supports the DeafBlind Leadership NOW movement’s August 5th petition. We are disappointed in the Helen Keller National Center’s continued dismissal of DeafBlind excellence and suppression of DeafBlind governance.
To echo the words of the petition: Enough is enough. It’s time.
In solidarity,
Erin Campbell
