Summary

SB 665 changes the name of the state Office of the Deaf and Hard of Hearing to the Office of the Deaf, Deafblind, and Hard of Hearing, and similarly renames the Maryland Advisory Council on Deaf and Hard of Hearing. The bill updates dozens of code sections, definitions, and administrative references to reflect the new titles and provides transition rules for records, personnel, and printed materials. It did not pass and therefore did not become law.
