What Deaf Interpreters Wish Hearing Interpreters Knew: Panel Discussion (0.2)

While the concept of a Deaf Interpreter might seem new, Deaf people have been informally serving as interpreters for other Deaf people in perpetuity. One way we can become better partners and allies with DIs is to listen to them and work together to meet the needs of our consumers. What is the best way to be an advocate for our consumers? Do we always tell the Deaf client that a DI will be present? Who hires the Deaf interpreter? What do we need to know to work together as a team? Join us for an evening of discussion with our panel of Certified Deaf Interpreters and Provisionally Licensed Deaf Interpreters so that we can learn more.
