Hello Quad City Interpreters!
Welcome to The Network of Intepreters for Community Enhancement (NICE)
NICE was formed on September 19, 2007 with the purpose of bringing together local interpreters to improve the interpreting, deaf, and general community by volunteering.
As interpreters we have noticed that when we work together to improve ourselves and the intepreting profession everyone grows. The Deaf consumer receives better access and more qualified interpreters. The hearing people involved in the situation get a better view of deafness and a more positive view of the Deaf client. They think of interpreters as professionals.
With this idea in mind we would like to enhance the community in which we live and help ourselves grow as a profession at the same time.
There is no membership criteria. Just come to our events when and if you can. If you have any ideas of activites for us to plan please let us know. Check back often for updates and news.Our email address is niceofqc@gmail.com If you would like to make sure your name is added to our mailing list please send an email and we'll make sure to keep you informed of events, workshops, and NICE opportunities.
