The DeafBlind Camp of Maryland
A week built on trust, touch, and presence.
Where access is not an accommodation,
but the foundation.
Volunteers become eyes and ears.
Connection becomes language.
The DeafBlind Camp of Maryland was established in 1998 by Deaf Interfaith to provide a safe, fun, barrier-free week for persons who have a significant hearing and vision loss. Campers have varying degrees of hearing and vision loss; many are totally deaf and blind.
Everyone involved in the camp is a volunteer, including the planning committee, the coordinators, and the Support Service Providers (SSP). The SSPs are the eyes and ears for campers and give up their own vacation to make sure that each camper can experience the camp to its fullest.
