American Sign Language Interpreters (ASL)
The APHA Opening and Closing General Sessions, APHA Special Sessions and Disability Section Sessions will have an ASL interpreter assigned to the program. Interpreters can also be arranged for hearing impaired registrants at any scientific session if notice is given at least one month in advance of the meeting. An
ASL Request Form
, indicating the sessions you plan to attend, must be submitted to APHA no later than October 6, 2010. Download copies of the form or contact
access@apha.org
. The form requires that you provide a schedule of sessions you wish to attend. Please use the personal scheduler function to assist you in arranging your schedule. Simply select the sessions you wish to attend and then print out a copy of your personal schedule and submit it along with the ASL Request Form.
On-site requests for interpreters can be made through the APHA convention office (CCC, Show Office A); however, APHA cannot guarantee that the sign language provider will be able to accommodate the request without advance notice.
