Consider what happens when the interpreter’s intentions and the Deaf client’s desires and needs collide. As interpreters, we are always reminded to “Do No Harm.” The problem is: This mantra can be ambiguous. Research proves that we have to step out of our own awareness; otherwise we may find ourselves continuing in unconscious patterns that disrupt rapport with our clients and hinder trust. By pausing to ‘check-in’, we are changed.

Our vision for Think Tank Tuesdays is to provide a space for monthly, proactive dialogue with Deaf professionals about interpreting practices, especially those that foster trust-building with the Deaf Community. The focus is on allowing for inquiry and taking time to reflect on the personal and professional experiences shared by our guests. 

As we welcome these honest and unique perspectives, Think Tank Tuesdays open the door to ‘checking in’, allowing for self-reflection that is critical to our professional growth – reflection that can fuel the monthly Discussion on the 4th Tuesday!

What does the world of a Deaf Interpreter look like?
