Department of Assistive and Rehabilitative Services, Office for Deaf and Hard of Hearing Services, Do Interpreters Drive<\/strong><\/p>\n

Have you experienced frustrations when working with an interpreter, but don\u2019t understand why you feel this way? Or, have you ever felt uncomfortable receiving interpreter services and can\u2019t explain why?<\/p>\n

In this workshop, geared toward people who are deaf or hard of hearing, you will learn how to work with interpreters, and about the interpreters\u2019 code of professional conduct. Other topics covered in the workshop are:<\/p>\n

? Definitions of key terms such as interpreter, certification, licensure, ethics, behavior, and grievance<\/p>\n

? Differences between a qualified interpreter and someone who knows sign language<\/p>\n

? How the Registry of Interpreters for the Deaf (RID) Code of\u00a0Professional Conduct applies to interpreters\u2019 behaviors<\/p>\n

This workshop is designed to give consumers who are deaf or hard of hearing more confidence when working with interpreters and to help them access the communication services they need for success.<\/p>\n
