Quality ASL Interpreting Services
We're Philadelphia's most competent ASL Interpreting services. We've been a part of building bridges of communication in this community for over 40 years.
American Sign Language Interpreting
DHCC is familiar with the communication needs of the Deaf consumer and uses its processes to determine which interpreter has the skill to work most effectively with a particular Deaf person.
DHCC works to fill assignments with a qualified interpreter at all of the either onsite or remote (video remote interpreting) assignments. DHCC has an excellent reputation in the community and has experience providing interpreters in all types of situations. Our sign language interpreters are thoroughly screened prior to working with our customers.
Emergency Interpreter Service (EIS)
DHCC has the first and longest serving on-call emergency interpreter service in the Delaware Valley for medical and/or police emergencies during non-business hours. One coordinator and 4 interpreters are on call each night, weekend or holiday for a quick response.

CART (Realtime Captioning)
We provide CART (or Realtime Captioning) which uses qualified transcribers with specialized equipment who print a word for word version of spoken language on a laptop computer, TV monitor, or overhead screen. DHCC arranges this service.
Video Remote Interpreting (VRI)
DHCC coordinates Video Remote Interpreting (VRI), which is the provision of sign language interpreting through the use of video conferencing technology. The parties that need to communicate are in the same location, and the interpreter is connected remotely.
Community Interpreting Program (CIP)
The Community Interpreting Program (CIP) is meant to cover one-time events not covered under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) such as weddings, funerals, baby showers, etc. It is not for on-going, monthly events or business related meetings. This program is restricted to use by individuals only. Requests from businesses and organizations cannot be accepted.
