The National Council on Interpreting in Health Care Annual Membership Meeting

The National Council on Interpreting in Health Care (NCIHC) would like to extend a warm invitation to our Annual Membership Meeting taking place June 5 & 6, 2008 in Atlanta, GA. This year’s theme, “Hand in Hand: Shaping the Profession TOGETHER” exemplifies the spirit with which the Council began its work almost 15 years ago.

The NCIHC Annual Membership Meeting is a once-a-year opportunity for stakeholders to get together, in person, to discuss issues that affect equal access to health care and health care interpreting. In addition to updates from across the country, this year’s membership meeting will feature a live debate, presentations on best practices, a fun round of “speed networking,” and  working groups on topics such as:
 

·         Interpreter Training and Education

·         Quality of Interpreting Service Programs

·         Funding Interpreting Programs

·         Standards for Training

·         Community-Building

Our Annual membership meeting is open to members of all interpreter organizations. We invite you to join your voice to ours and make an impact on our dynamic profession.
