  Marjorie Foster, Student Representative Chair
  Student members are an integral component of SCRID and we want and need your input to enhance the professionalism, diversity, integrity and growth of the interpreting field.
  
  The Student Representative Committee’s goals:
  

  • Establish a network between local Interpreter Training Programs (ITP's) and SCRID.
  • Keep ITP students engaged in SCRID activities and aware of changes in the interpreting field affecting them and their future career.
  • Provide an opportunity for students to inform SCRID about their ITP's and sharing their knowledge throughout their time in training.

  Please contact me if you have further question or are interested in becoming a College Representative for your school.

  SCRID Trilingual interpreters is a committee of the Southern California registry of interpreters for the deaf. We are concerned with the unique issues related to interpreting between English, American sign language, and a third spoken language. The purpose of this group is to share resources on local, regional, and national levels, provide access to information, and give support and encouragement to one another.
  
  Our committee meets once every two months, on a Friday from 10 AM to 12 noon. Meeting location and dates are confirmed via e-mail newsgroup. You do not have to be a trilingual interpreter in order to participate. Everyone is welcome.
