Underserved Interpreters Initiative: 

two minds exchanging information


Launched in Fall 2012, the Underserved Mentor Project serves mentors and mentees living within the GURIEC 14 state region, geared toward people who are members of an ethnic and/or cultural minority, or living in a rural area. Preference was given to one mentor/one mentee per state. Applications are closed, but the work is ongoing!
