Albuquerque, New Mexico - May 27, 2009 - We Interpret.Net has signed a contract leasing office space at 6100 Osuna Rd. NE Suite B105 (Seagull Office Plaza) in Albuquerque, NM. We Interpret.Net along with is partner company, We Interpret Linked, both located in the state of Maryland has been providing Sign Language Interpreting services since 1996 primarily on the East Coast. This new addition will allow the company to continue to expand into the western portions of the United States while supporting its operation with extended office hours. We Interpret.Net is also an approved sponsor for Continuing Education Credits through the Registry of Interpreters for the Deaf. In addition to the office staff, full time interpreters, both Deaf and Hearing,

Appropriate communication methods vary by individual and We Interpret.Net can provide interpreters skilled in American Sign Language, Signed English, The Rochester Method, Cued Speech, Oral Interpretation and Tactile Methods for the Deaf/Blind individuals. In specific areas of New Mexico interpreters are in short supply.
