Who is responsible for paying for the interpreter?
The ADA mandates that public and private agencies, offices, or businesses that serve the general public be accessible to all individuals. Thus, if you serve the hearing public, you must also be accessible to the Deaf and Hard of Hearing public as well. Therefore, it is the responsibility of the agency, office or business to pay for interpreting services.
