Have you noticed the pillars at the College’s Ottawa Campus main intersection, known as the ‘four corners’, have taken on a new look?
In recognition of Deafblind Awareness Month in Canada, Algonquin College is part of a community-wide ‘yarn bombing’ initiative with the CNIB (Canadian National Institute for the Blind).
CNIB Deafblind Community Services members have been on campus attaching the display of knitted/crocheted squares to the pillars. The display includes a small sign describing the purpose of the activity.
This initiative, which is being carried out in communities around the world this month, symbolizes the coming together of people in the field of Deafblindness. The goal is to increase awareness and knowledge of Deafblindness as a unique disability as well as to advocate for appropriate services for people around the world who are deafblind.
