This is ridiculous. Communication needs to be accessible for everyone not just people who only use ASL. fix it.
Its wild that the organization meant to help deaf people is actively limiting how they get their info. Listen to the community and change the policy.
Finally someone is speaking up about this. As a deaf person who relies on SEE I feel completely ignored by the current standards. Accept the ESSE already.
My kids use SEE and it is so hard to find someone qualified. Its really unfair that these interpreters are basically being told their skills dont count.
RID needs to get with the program. Stop gatekeeping and just let people communicate the way they actually need to.

DUMB RULE. Let the interpreters get certified for the work they actually do.
