Training Connections

The Protactile Language Interpreting National Education Program (PLI) collaborates with national DeafBlind leaders and trainers to offer evidence-based, community-focused trainings across the United States.

PLI has worked with each trainer listed on the DeafBlind Mentor page. These trainers have been through extensive pre- and post-evaluation, interviews, and intensive training. Check out a list of our PLI approved trainers: DeafBlind Mentors Page
