ASL
Program Awarded $4.5 million from Department of Education
Professor Dennis Cokely, Director of the American Sign Language
Program, is pleased to announce that the ASL Program has
been awarded two grants from the Department of Education
totaling $4.5 million over five years. One grant, for $1.5
million, will create a Regional Interpreter Education Center
that will serve New England, New York, New Jersey, Puerto
Rico and the Virgin Islands. This grant, under the leadership
of Cathy Cogen, is one of five such regional awards. Receipt
of the grant marks the fifth time that the ASL Program has
been awarded a five-year interpreter education grant from
the Department of Education.
The
second grant, for $3 million, will create a National Interpreter
Education Center. This grant, under the leadership of Betsy
Winston and Dennis Cokely, will coordinate activities of
the five Regional Interpreter Education Centers and will
implement a number of national initiatives. The ASL Program’s
receipt of this grant is the first time in the history of
the thirty-year competition that only one five-year national
award was made. read more on the Northeastern website
