What is a higher sign?

Higher Sign professionals are typically experts who specialize in sign language interpretation and communication, particularly in educational or academic settings such as colleges and universities. They facilitate communication between deaf or hard-of-hearing individuals and others by translating spoken language into sign language and vice versa. These professionals play a crucial role in ensuring accessibility and equal participation for students, faculty, and staff who use sign language. Their work may also involve advocating for accommodations and educating others about deaf culture and accessibility needs.
