Description
The Interpreting Services Department at The Learning Center for the Deaf provides American Sign

Language interpreting in a variety of settings, including educational, medical and therapeutic

environments. Our Deaf interpreters have extensive training in utilizing their native knowledge of

ASL for assessment and specialized situations. These assignments require nuanced translations

that contain cultural, visual, tactile and linguistic elements. We also provide information regarding

the Deaf Community, how to work with interpreters, and how to make communication more

accessible. Our team of schedulers coordinate, schedule, and support interpreters in an effort to

maintain the smooth operation of the entire department.
