Hello from Australia,
We have a group here that are interested in accessing the conference but we would like to know if it will be interpreted. Will it be voiced by an interpreter? Please let me know and I will organise registration. By the way we work at Able Australia in the Deafblind services team. Our manager is from America so she is fluent in ASL. I am the in house interpreter but of course my language is Auslan.
Thank you for arranging the conference we are very excited.
