We pride ourselves in guaranteeing certified<br \/>\ninterpreters and satisfactory experience.  According to Bentley Fink,<br \/>\nDirector of Interpreting, &#8220;Texas has a very large Deaf Community, rivaling<br \/>\nthat of Washington, D.C., and it is only fitting that a Deaf-owned company<br \/>\nis available to ensure that their interpreting needs are met.  Because we<br \/>\nutilize certified interpreters, we take the steps to make sure that the Deaf<br \/>\nCommunity receives and experiences the best interpreting service that WIN<br \/>\nhas to offer.  Additionally, our rates are competitive and our customer<br \/>\nservice is unparalleled.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In addition to interpreting services, WIN offers workshops on topics such as<br \/>\n&#8220;How to work with an interpreter&#8221;, &#8220;Utilizing an interpreter in the<br \/>\nworkplace&#8221;, and Deaf Culture sensitivity, to name a few.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;A lot of times Deaf people have difficulty integrating themselves into the<br \/>\nworkforce due to communication barriers and often their potential is<br \/>\nuntapped.  Companies are also uneducated on how to appropriately accommodate<br \/>\na Deaf employee on the job, and we are here to help educate them on ensuring<br \/>\nthat their communication needs are met.\u201d   Fink continues.<\/p>\n<p>Fink adds: &#8220;It is only through constant education streams that we are able<br \/>\nto attain these steps towards the absence of fear, which leads to increased<br \/>\nindependence.  Empowering the individuals with the tools and knowledge of<br \/>\ntheir rights gives people the courage to make changes for themselves and<br \/>\nothers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Contact WIN today!<\/p>\n<p>bfink@westerninterpreting.net<br \/>\nrequest@westerninterpreting.net<br \/>\n512-692-9285<\/p>\n<p>Website: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.westerninterpreting.net\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.westerninterpreting.net<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WIN WANTS YOU!
