I work as a professional interpreter in the DC Metro area. I am happy to see an article that will cause people to think about the option of learning sign language.
There is a great need for more interpreters, and there are not nearly enough people entering the field to keep up with the demand. I hope this article will spur some people to look into the possibility of not only learning sign language, but also making a career of it.
There are a couple of good links I would like to recommend to you. First of all, for people who are interested in becoming a sign language interpreter but do not have access to an interpreter training program, there is now a four year degree available online. You can get info on that at http://www.tntemple.edu/templates/System/details.asp?id=31498&PID=540107&Style=
The other one is great for people who just want more information on church interpreting, deafness, and sign language. It is at www.signinghispraises.net.
