Partners Interpreting is excited to announce the opportunity for providing eligible pro bono interpreting for the community.   

With our new internship and apprenticeship program initiative, we have the opportunity to give back to the Deaf, Hard of Hearing, and Deaf/Blind community.  Our interns and apprentices are available to cover eligible pro bono hours in the Massachusetts and Rhode Island area on a first come first serve basis.   

Our pool of interns and apprentices have completed or are currently in their senior year of an Interpreter Training Program.  Although they are novice interpreters who will be working independently, they are under the supervision of highly qualified mentors and the Director of Training and Development.   

Eligibility requirements:  

• You must be 18 years or older or you must be the legal guardian of the person for whom you are requesting services
• You may not request pro bono services if there is a legal requirement that someone must provide interpreting services (e.g., a college, university, hospital, business, etc.).  

• Examples of potentially eligible request: 
• Family Functions (ex. weddings, memorial service, baby shower, reunions, holiday celebrations) 
• Community Events/Gatherings (ex. informal neighborhood meetings, community service projects) 
• Community Education (girl/boy scouts, self-interest classes, etc.)  

To see if your request is eligible for pro bono services, please email Partners Interpreting: probono@partnersinterpreting.com
