【 摘 要 】
Therehas been a recent resurgence of Native American and First Nations language useas a part of a broader effort toward community wellness and cultural revival.In order for blind people in these communities to fully participate inlanguage-oriented programming, the establishment of a braille code for thelanguage in question is necessary. Creating a braille code for a NativeAmerican or First Nations language requires collaboration between literatenative speakers and braille experts. As blind Native American and First Nationspeople learn braille codes for their languages, they can experience empowermentand increase their well-being. Teachers of the blind can offer instruction inthese braille codes, building relationships marked by understanding while simultaneouslyempowering their students to participate in language-oriented, community-basedprograms and activities.
