equal access to communication and informationfor students, staff, and faculty
who are deaf /hard of hearing.

interpreters and approximately 80 hourly interpreters. We provide interpreting services for credit and non-credit classes, student-teacher
meetings, counselor-student meetings, campus activities, and special events at
any of ACC's 7 main campuses and over 30 satellite locations. There are on
average 60 students who are deaf /hard of hearing enrolled at ACC in the Fall
and Spring semesters. This translates to interpreters being provided for
approximately 100 sections. To request an Interpreter click here.
