Shelby + team were so helpful, fast, and knowledgeable! I am so glad I chose to use their services for my show. They walked me through their pricing and services to helped me make the most informed and inclusive choice, that made the most sense for my production. They also made sure I could find interpreters of color, which almost no other org was able to do. Plus, everyone is so kind, and professional. This is my go-to organization now!

Recently, as a cast member, it was a beautiful experience to have myself and the rest of the cast, and speakers voiced by Sarah & Avery during a live production produced by The Anthropologists. They were kind, patient, prepared, and were able to pick up and perfectly sign the performance and talkback/interview for the audience. This is the second or third time I’ve had the pleasure of being voiced by or seen interpreters from Inclusive Communications Services. Every time, the interpreters come with the same warm and professional presence. Regardless of if you know or not if an attendee will need ASL, I encourage you to hire them. Being able to see ASL during the talkback was a positive, refreshing, and inclusive experience. As a performer I was honored and happy that a production I was part of can be enjoyed by a wider audience. Please reach out to Inclusive Communications Services so that you can have interpreters at your event; you’ll be proud that your content is accessible and inclusive for a wider audience to enjoy.

Inclusive Communication Services was so fantastic to work with! They organization was able to provide a fantastic group of interpreters that met our the needs of our event and were able to quickly pivot when outside circumstances required it. We also needed another interpreter very last minute for the day after our event and they were able to accommodate quickly and without any issue. We really appreciated having ICS' help to provide interpretation services for our deaf event attendees, it made the whole event feel fun and inclusive for all.

I.C.S. Provided a world-class service requested at the very last minute for a large scale event. The interpreter adapted immediately to the complex ceremony, even without time for rehearsal. The ASL interpretation quality was live-streamed, and the feedback regarding the quality of the interpretation was impeccable.

Inclusive Community Services helped us have interpretation services for the first annual Northern Slavery Collective conference. The organization is in its early stages, which is hopeful to expand publicly through a website and social media as a resource to the public and educational communities for understanding and learning about the underrepresented stories of enslaved people. ICS did an amazing job. We will definitely be using them in the future.

The booking process for booking an interpreter was very convenient. Inclusive Communication Services is amazing, as they assisted in making G.R.A.C.E. Granting Resources And Community Enrichment Inc. (non-profit) Yoga and Vision Board Party event a huge success. Erin's service offered the feeling of inclusion, being understood, and enthusiasm from an attendee. Erin was punctual, professional, and a pleasure to work with. Thoughtfulness goes a long way and the smile that an ASL interpreter was present brought joy to my heart as we did our due diligence for satisfying what was needed as a community non-profit. I highly recommend ICS!
