GIVING BACK
At the ASL Extension, we love giving back to our community. In a perfect world, we wish we could accomplish all of our goals perfectly, but it is a lot of work connecting all of the dots and filling the gaps in NYC and beyond. We can only do this together!
If you are looking to give back to our community or volunteer your interpreting services, please browse through these options so that you can give back!
National Alliance of Black Interpreters, NYC Chapter (NAOBI-NYC)
