We appreciate the shout-outs we’ve received from the groups we’ve been blessed to provide access for.
Below are just a few of the kind words we’ve received, along with some interviews that Deaf protesters and Pro Bono ASL have been featured in!
“On behalf of the NAMD Advocates, we cannot say THANK YOU enough for providing ASL interpreting…This was one of the few spaces across our country that was designed to celebrate the history and the future of the Americans with Disabilities Act from the perspective of disabled Black, Indigenous, People of Color.”
— The National Alliance of Multicultural Disabled Advocates
“Thank you @probonoasl for showing up and putting your gloves on without questions asked and simply starting to help out.” (edited for clarity)
— Deaf Latinos y Familias
“We were glad to host our ADA30 Trivia Inclusion Hour with Rorri Burton and Susan Pacheco, two great ASL interpreters… to increase access for our community members. “
-The Kelsey
“I just want to send a super special shout out to Brianna and Rorri for troubleshooting online [for our] ASL visual to make sure that our event was accessible and ran smoothly. I don’t know you two that well, but I’m pretty sure you’re angels… you two inspire me to make sure that everyone is included.”
-Courage California
“Thank you so much to @ProBonoASL and Jamii Linguists for all of your support in ASL interpretation this week and making #ForUsByUsMentalHealth more accessible”
-Embrace Your Unknown
“We love Pro Bono Interpreters… we are so grateful for you and those who have been interpreting on a weekly basis with BLD PWR and BLMLA. It has truly been a pleasure working alongside the wonderful Pro Bono ASL team. Pro Bono ASL interpreters are professional, organized, and reliable. Our organization is proud to be a part of a more accessible movement because of them.” ”
