In recent times it has been observed that sexuality, emotional and social well being is one of the important factors in normal development of everyone’s life. Sexual, emotional and social distress/disconnect may lead to isolation. Deafblind population is very much vulnerable to abuse due to sexual, emotional and social disconnect. The need for personal understanding and professional grooming is much needed to get recognized in the world. This will help individuals with deafblindness to make way for positive and dignified life at home, work place and in community at large.
