Watch Anthony Aramburo present in ASL about the successful relationship between two organizations, National Black Deaf Advocates (NBDA) and the National Alliance of Black Interpreters (NAOBI), that fosters growth among aspiring interpreters of similar cultural backgrounds and ideas.

This mutually enriching relationship allows for mentoring opportunities that aim to prepare NAOBI interpreter members for certification by providing a setting where they can receive ongoing mentorship and later be hired as bona fide conference interpreters.

Sincerely,

Anna Davis
