"ASD Community (Source) Interpreting is always timely and responsive in meeting my office’s requests. Fantastically talented interpreters – in fact the Director of Music commented after a particularly complex liturgy at the Cathedral of St. Joseph in Hartford that watching the interpreter was to see “poetry in motion”. My go-to resource for any interpreting needs."
- Deacon Dennis R. Ferguson, Director
Office of the Deaf Apostolate for the Archdiocese of Hartford
"We worked with ASD Community (Source) Interpreting on an unusual project: bringing radio programming to a deaf audience. The experience taught me a lot about the way the hearing and the deaf are on opposite banks of a river and about how ASL can be the bridge, the essential bridge connecting us to our brothers and sisters. I learned also about the way ASL is an art. It's more like painting than like a mechanized feature on our phones. We speak in words but also in colors of sound, emotion and personality. The great interpreters fill in those parts of the canvas."
- Colin McEnroe, Executive Producer and Host
Connecticut Public Radio
"The Connecticut Convention & Sport Bureau used the services of ASD Community (Source) Interpreting to prepare restaurant servers to better interact with the attendees of the NAD conference that was hosted in Hartford. The training process was informative and interactive giving those who participated a better understanding of the needs of the non-hearing community and the correct way to communicate with them. The end result was an enjoyable and welcomed experience for the attendees of the NAD Conference."
