CoNavigation

CoNavigators work in teams with DeafBlind individuals about visual, situational, and environmental information navigating their world. As a “TOUCH BASED NAVIGATION” through daily routines, such as shopping at stores, and going to doctor appointments, this approach is based on the Co-Presence theory, working together as a team navigating routines. 

 

CoNavigator is different from Support Service Provider based on the approach they work with DeafBlind individuals. Support Service Provider often uses the term guiding as a part of the role responsibility, and CoNavigators use the term of navigation as a way to work with DeafBlind individuals as a team.
