Oh MY! That profession is attractive!

We need more sign language interpreters in every part of the world. My guest Amaresh Gopalakrishnan speaks to this concerning India. He tells us some of the foundational steps they have made to create awareness of the Deaf community's needs and building up and educating Indian Sign Language interpreters. With 18,000,000 Deaf they have a long way to go to fulfill the need for interpreters.
