"We got married on 2/19/10 in Riverhead and had requested an interpreter for our wedding. As the groom's parents are Deaf, we wanted them to have the full experience of the wedding that everyone else was having. We hired an interpreter from Mill Neck Interpreter Service, Patty Sewell. She was very professional and clear. As the bride being someone who studied interpreting for a bit and the groom growing up in the Deaf community, we were glad that we had a qualified interpreter." – Nicole Ann and John Ciaramella, Newlyweds

Benevolent Fund

Mill Neck Interpreter Service has implemented a benevolent fund with the goal of providing the community with interpreting services in situations that are not covered under the ADA. The fund will be available for Mill Neck to use in order to pay the interpreter their fee at no cost to the Deaf or hearing consumer. There are two options available: you can contribute a specific dollar amount that you feel comfortable with or make contributions that will be automatically withdrawn from your bi-weekly pay check. For more information, please contact Heather Rossi at hrossi@millneck.org or Bill Charon at wcharon@millneck.org. Click here to access the Benevolent Fund Donation Form.
