Your story could be the one another family needs to hear! 

After many years, NFADB is bringing back Family Stories to give our community an opportunity to share, connect, and learn from one another.

Every family’s journey is different. Your story may help another family feel seen, learn something new, or simply know they are not alone.

Ideas to include:

• Your family’s journey with a DeafBlind loved one

• A challenge, milestone, or success

• A resource or person who made a difference

• Something you wish you had known

• Advice or encouragement for another family

• Your hopes for the future

A Few Guidelines

• Stories can be submitted by any family member

• Share your story in your own voice - no professional writing required!

• Please keep submissions to 500–1,000 words (max)

• NFADB may edit submissions for length and clarity

• Photos are welcome with written permission. Must have good resolution and visibility. 

Submissions due by November 1, 2026.

For questions or to submit your story, please send an email to info@nfadb.org.
