ALABAMA INSTITUTE FOR DEAF AND BLIND
The Alabama Institute for Deaf and Blind has been helping those who are deaf and/or have a visual impairment since 1858. AIDB has 8 different regional centers, located across Alabama and covering all 67 counties. Whether you are a parent with a child recently diagnosed with a hearing or vision loss, a deaf adult or business person needing an interpreter, a blind adult in need of assistive technology, or a senior coping with age-related hearing or vision loss, AIDB can help you find the resources you need. AIDB offers a unique mixture of services, developed according to the needs of the communities we serve.
One of the programs offered in AIDB is the kinder-prep program, which helps pre-school students ages three to five adapt to their impairments. Hear more about the program and how it changes lives in the video below.
