Posted on Nov 08, 2009 - 09:38 PM Linda Cundy and S. Kay Vincent attended and presented at Deaf Women United Conference 2009 in Portland, Oregon. In their presentation, “Why Deaf Women Are Misunderstood” both sisters raised questions in depth with minimal historical documentation of generations of Deaf women pioneers, spanning from 1600’s to 2000’s. Deaf women’s true contributions to the world are not fully understood due to improper documentation. The participants were encouraged to do more thorough research and publications of Deaf women’s achievements. Such information would be helpful in Deaf Culture and ASL Studies.

Even though mentoring has been a buzz word, a workshop and conference proceedings topic, a textbook chapter, it remains an area where people have not developed their knowledge and skills. This workshop by Cynthia L. K. Herbst, MS, CSC, will attempt to provide a rich selection of information, resources and tools to assist mentees themselves, and budding and seasoned mentors in creating more effective mentoring relationships. Cindy Herbst has been co-coordinator and instructor in the English/ASL Interpreter Education Program at Pierce College in Woodland Hills, California since 1979. She has Deaf parents and has been certified by RID (CSC) since 1978. Cindy received her M.S. in Teaching Interpreting from Western Maryland College (now McDaniel College) in 1991. Cindy has been a professional interpreter for 36 years, and has served as a consultant, workshop presenter, facilitator and mentor for over 25 years.

Posted on Sep 19, 2007 - 05:12 PM July 2007 - As part of in-service training for working interpreters, we (Daphne & Kay) presented a workshop for Saguaro Interpreting Services. The participants enjoyed the presentation mix of perspectives and and experiences by both Deaf and Interpreting professionals. They also thought the activities in voicing were helpful and the teaming discussion was important part of the workshop. Posted on Sep 19, 2007 - 03:19 PM During the 2007 RID Conference in San Francisco, the Hatrak Sisters presented a workshop called, “Eek! I’m Voicing for a Deaf Presenter!” The Hatrak Sisters include three Deaf leaders who present frequently and a hearing sister who is an OHCODA (the only hearing child of deaf adults) and a working sign language interpreter. Through the years at family gatherings, the discussion has always turned to the topic of “interpreters and the working Deaf professional” along with other interpreting/Deaf issues. This workshop was developed as a result of those discussions.
