What Our Customers are Saying...
Check out what our New York sign language and caption customers are saying about the inclusive experience!
ICS provided interpreting for our virtual book launch, and they were great! The event was trilingual, so they were working alongside Spanish language interpreters and managed the busy format with generosity and ease. I look forward to getting to work with them again in the future.
The Story Pirates love ICS! We had a last minute need for interpretation for a live show, which was particularly challenging because it included scripted, musical, and improvised sections. They were fantastic! We loved having the ability to reach even more kids than before. Thank you so much!
Inclusive Communication Services was able to provide an interpreter with very late notice, which was super appreciated! Cedar was an excellent interpreter and we will definitely plan to work with them again in the future.
I feel so lucky to have gotten to partner with Inclusive Communication Services many times over the last few months to make events all over the city more inclusive and accessible! The work done by this organization is truly incredible and I am always impressed by how smooth and easy it is to coordinate with their staff and interpreters as a third party event organizer.
Steffi and Erin were excellent! They were incredibly professional and prepared. We were so appreciative to have them in the room!
The organization I co-run had to shift a disability issues press conference we were planning to host in hybrid format to all-online the day before the event - after a politician we were collaborating with pulled their support, including in-person ASL services. ICS was able to confirm the same day we contacted them (pretty much unheard of for ASL services) and provide us with a lovely, skilled interpreter team for the online event the next day. They helped us turn a terrible situation that would have negatively impacted our disabled speakers and community into a successful, accessible event. Can't recommend them enough!
Inclusive Communication Services is always a joy to work with! I'm continually impressed by their flexibility and commitment to providing accessible services in locations across the city as well as virtual events.
I have been working as a freelance interpreter with ICS since their early days. I have never felt more seen, heard, and respected. Their rates are extremely fair. The coordinators are easily accessible for any last minute details that may come up on a job. I cannot boast about this company enough! Please consider using them when booking any events needing access to communication!

I have loved working for Inclusive Communication Services as a virtual interpreter. The staff is wonderful at giving the interpreters pertinent information as soon as possible, allowing interpreters adequate time to prepare for jobs. ICS works with many interpreters, yet I feel valued and a priority every time I ask a question or share feedback. Overall, a great company to work for!
ICS is an incredible community-oriented business and I cannot thank them enough for providing affordable ASL interpretation services for Drag Queen Story Hour NYC and allowing us to fully commit to our goal of inclusivity and access for all. Their professionalism and flexible scheduling makes them a joy to work with, for both in-person and virtual events!
I was getting anxious after being turned down by a long list of interpreters for our middle school musical. It was a BIG ask and at the LAST minute but these gals came through! They were super flexible and courteous and professional. I would recommend them in a heartbeat. THANK YOU, ICS! The family in need of your services was incredibly grateful and so am I. Keep up the good work.
Transformative Experience for both performers and audience. Professional, accommodating, and the best in their field. Enthusiastically endorse.
I knew nothing about how to approach this and everyone at ICS took great care of us and our guests. I also learned so much about how much more we need to do on this end to make our experiences more accessible to all.
Shelby and the ASL interpreters at ICS are extremely professional and a true pleasure to work with. Shelby made scheduling a breeze and answered all of my questions to ensure that our first time with an interpreter went as smoothly as possible. They did a beautiful job interpreting for our live event and I look forward to working with them in the future.
Great experience! Tyler answered my call right away and was able to help me get my project captioned in a timely manor. Turned out great. Will definitely use them again in the future.
I recently worked with Tyler from Inclusive Communication Services for a work event and he was extremely helpful in providing simultaneous ASL interpretation for our program. He was so easy to work with, patient, and dedicated to providing his services to make our program more accessible for our greater community, and I would definitely work with him, and Inclusive Communication Services, in the future.
They were beyond generous in getting a show I was working on interpreted. Had COVID not hit we absolutely would have brought them back again and again.
I would give Inclusive Communication Services 10 stars if I could. They do the ASL interpretation for all of our events at The Indie Theater Fund. Most recently, they did our annual event - this year...virtually. It was NOT an easy task and Shelby was professional, upbeat and incredibly clear. I highly recommend them and am looking forward to working with them in 2021.
I absolutely love ICS! They were able to send me a very friendly sign language interpreter last-minute for a job interview with a Deaf candidate. The coordinator walked me through everything on the phone and even gave me some tips on how to properly use an interpreter- it never even occurred to me to ask! Very helpful and affordable- I'll definitely use them again in the future 🙂
