Qualified visual language interpreters are required almost everywhere. Deaf people have a right to have full and equal access to their surroundings. This can be achieved by hiring a qualified professional visual language interpreter.

There are many ways to hire a visual language interpreter, but you can have peace of mind that you will get quality service while supporting the community when you chose an interpreter who is a Preferred Interpreter.

PI interpreters are all members of a National Interpreting Association to ensure they are qualified and confident in the interpreting setting. If you have any concerns or questions, they will be addressed by the interpreter coordinator to ensure quality service.

Signing adequately is vastly different from professional interpreting. While a person who 'knows sign language' can generally converse with deaf people, qualified interpreters can deliver the translation smoothly, accurately, and impartially, adjusting to specialized terminology. Interpreters will say everything that is signed and sign everything that is spoken. They will not add to, edit, or censor the conversation.

When you hire a Preferred Interpreter, you are also helping the community. Preferred Interpreters donates a portion of every contract to various charities. When you hire a PI interpreter, not only are you providing access to the deaf individual you are servicing, you are also helping support the local and global communities in need.
