The Pennsylvania Office for the Deaf & Hard of Hearing (ODHH) is pleased to offer the following webinar on August 28, 2024, from 3:00 pm – 4:30 pm entitled “Interpreting vs. SSP: What’s the Difference?” When working with people who are Deaf and use American Sign Language (ASL), non-Deaf professionals can confuse the role of the interpreter and Support Service Provider (SSP).
