Abstract	The National Deaf-Blind Child Count is conducted each year to supplement OSEP's Federal Part C and Part B child counts, which include children as deaf-blind only when deaf-blindness is their single disability. In contrast, the National Deaf-Blind Child Count includes children whose disability is solely deaf-blindness, as well as those who have additional disabilities. In each of the past five years, 11% of children on the National Child Count were removed due to graduation, aging out, dropping out, death, or loss of contact. During that same timespan, 11% to 13% were newly identified and added each year. Understanding who these newly identified children are is important to state deaf-blind projects and the National Center on Deaf-Blindness, to ensure that TA services and products continue to meet their needs. This brief report summarizes this population. [This report was produced with the TA&D Network.] (ERIC).
