Please join us in supporting our immigrant community, discussing obstacles and solutions, finding answers and working together in protecting and advancing this vulnerable population. Our mission, strength and determination is now more important than ever.

Pre-AMM activities on Thursday, May 31st include an afternoon local hospital tour with a focus on learning about their specific language services solutions, as well as a Meet & Greet Welcome Reception in the evening.
Post-AMM Workshop on Standards of Practice
Advocacy and Role Boundaries
Two of the most challenging standards of practice for healthcare interpreters are Advocacy and Role Boundaries. Numerous factors such as workplace setting, employment status, and whether the service is face-to-face or via technology lead to questions and differing opinions about their application. The NCIHC is offering a four-hour workshop organized by the Standards and Training Committee which will examine these two National Standards of Practice and their application in the interpreted encounter. In addition to presentations there will be guided scenarios, discussion, and an opportunity for participants to share their experiences.
Please note: This event is an in-person workshop in Denver, CO. This event is separate from the AMM and requires separate registration.
Cost: $35 for NCIHC members / $45 for non-NCIHC members
Time: 1:00 - 5:00
Approved by CCHI for 4 CE hrs, CEAP ID #05680 ATA has approved the workshop for 4 continuing education points.
