VIDBE-Q Volume 69 Issue 3
Impaired education encounter on a weekly, daily, and even hourly basis to focus on
building, or rebuilding, connections with family and community. Regardless of the
type or degree of change that you have personally experienced over the past year, I
hope we all continue to find the patience and the grace to embrace the changes,
both planned and unexpected, that help us to grow both collectively and as a
division.
In the last issue of VIDBE-Q I asked for you to consider some of the ways
that you might be able to contribute to the resources and services that DVIDB
provides. Some of you have submitted articles for this publication, which is a huge
contribution to our division. For those of you who are looking for other ways to
play your part in supporting the work that is done by DVIDB, I encourage you to
reach out to me, or to any one of our board members, and offer to lend a few hours
for activities such as preparing for the Getting In Touch with Literacy Conference
or helping to plan the DVIDB social at the CEC conference in March of 2025. You
may even find that a contribution as simple as suggesting a speaker for one of our
webinars to our board members can lead to so many beneficial outcomes for the
members of DVIDB who participate in them.
As we move into the preparation for the upcoming school year, and all the
changes that accompany that transition, I hope that you will take some time to read
through the articles in this issue of VIDBE-Q and reflect on the wonderful work
