First Ever NYPD American Sign Language Initiative
Posted in: Linguistics News
On February 29, 2024, the NYPD’s Office of Equity and Inclusion launched their first ever “NYPD American Sign Language Initiative” cohort to train signing members of the NYPD to become certified American Sign Language Interpreters.
Adjunct ASL professor Jessica Wohlstetter is the instructor for this amazing program. Over the next 8 weeks, this cohort will immerse themselves into the world of ASL interpreting as they work towards obtaining certification.
