Mala Poe is the president of the San Diego Chapter of the Registry of Interpreters for the Deaf  and Vice-Chair for the Deaf-Blind Member Section under RID.
 Description: This workshop will give participants an overview and framework for  interpreting with and for Deaf-Blind and low vision individuals. It will  include communication tips and tricks, roles and responsibilities, cultural issues, sighted guide techniques using hands-on activities with simulators along with group lecture and discussion. Comparisons between visual ASL and tactile ASL signs will be examined. We will discuss necessary boundaries when working with this community and recognizing differences between interpreters and Support Service Providers.

"To Disclose, or To Rescue, That is the Question" presented by Ed Alletto and Melanie DeLeon-Benham
  This is a 2 hour continuing education webinar for American Sign Language Interpreters presented on Wednesday, March 21, 2012, 5:30pm-7:30pm
  Description: This will be an interactive webinar that will suggest a broad range of resources and an analytical approach that the court interpreter can use to aid them in deciding when they have a duty to disclose their prior involvement with a case or a duty to refuse to accept a court interpreting assignment. It is the presenter's belief that ASL interpreters too often refuse court assignments based on an incomplete analysis of their duty under the Court's Code of Professional Responsibility.
  Participants will earn 0.2 CEUs available through The Language Door - Activity# 0264-032-03
