Nationwide Interpreter Resource

Nationwide Interpreter Resource, Inc. (NIR) is a source for all your sign language interpreting needs. We provide a wide variety of interpreting services throughout the United States and Canada ranging from small practices to Fortune 500 companies. Whether an interpreter is required for a single assignment, or interpreters are needed at various sites throughout the country, it is our goal to provide the highest quality professional interpreters.
NIR was founded in 1997 by June B. Backer, CSC, a graduate of the National Technical Institute for the Deaf (NTID) at Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT). June has been a nationally certified interpreter since 1987 by the Registry of Interpreters for the Deaf (RID) and a leader in the industry.
NIR provides only qualified sign language interpreters who have many years of experience specializing in medical, educational, theatrical, legal, community and corporate settings. We are the only agency in our area that has an "on call" interpreter working nights and weekends to serve our medical community twenty-four hours a day and seven days a week.
We are proud to announce that in July 2009, NIR celebrated its 12th anniversary. Thank you for your support as NIR continues to provide quality services to our community.

...As one of the most reputable agencies, it has been not only gratifying working with NIR, but also a sense of security knowing that they strive to uphold such a high standard for all parties involved.

...There are many agencies out there, but few of this caliber. NIR's frequent "Food for Thought" sessions, which offer free CEUs, give us the opportunity to engage in professional development as well as interaction with our colleagues.
