Please retract the misinformation regarding the Sign Language Interpreter licensure from the WILL's "Fencing out Opportunity" Report immediately.
Why is this important?
The report, "Fencing out Opportunity," reflects a gross lack of understanding about the critical role of sign language interpreters and their licensure. The licensure is a critical component to protecting Wisconsin citizens who are deaf, hard of hearing and deaf-blind. The licensure ensures access so that communication and understanding can occur and is a matter of health and safety.
