This workshop is specifically designed to enhance an interpreter's ability to
apply communication tools/techniques to communicate with low functioning deaf
people or deaf and hard of hearing people with minimal to no language skills.

This is a hands-on activity that will help the interpreters expand their
"toolkit" whenever working with this specialized population and be able to
understand the message being signed by the client/student.


It will also provide participants with opportunities to interact with
interpreters in the field of deafness and explore personal experiences and
helpful tips in applying their skills to service provision.

All interpreters - at any level are welcome to come and learn!!!!
