Asl interpreters are often trained to read, understand and interpret spoken English and are often employed in schools, nursing homes, hotels and other facilities where interpreters have limited skills.

A new report from the National Association of Asl Translators says that a growing number of Asls are finding themselves in situations where they cannot speak English.

The group has been tracking more than 200 Asl-speaking Asl speakers who were employed in nursing homes or other facilities that are not equipped with interpreters and said they have been told that they are not qualified to perform their jobs.

They are also being told that if they are unable to speak English, they are out of luck.

The report is titled “Asl interpreter training and employment challenges.”

The group says it received more than 50,000 requests for training and more than 1,000 job offers from people who are either not fluent in English or do not speak English at all.

They say many people are reluctant to take up jobs that may require speaking English and that the number of jobs requiring Asl skills has risen in the past decade.

The Asl group is calling on the federal government to establish a national licensing program for Asl language interpreters.

Asl can be a barrier to employment A new study by the National Asl Council found that more than 60 percent of Aslamic workers said they were unable to find employment as interpreters because of language barriers.

This is up from just under 60 percent in 2005, when the study was conducted.

Aslami communities are still largely isolated in the West Bank, and they have limited options for employment.

Aslanim, a non-Arabic language spoken by approximately 10 percent of the Palestinian population, is one of the few other official languages spoken by Palestinian refugees in the Gaza Strip.

Asls do not have the same rights as Palestinian refugees because of Israel’s discriminatory laws that discriminate against Palestinians.

In the West, Asls have been a mainstay of Palestinian society for more than a century.

A report by the Israeli government in 2011 found that nearly half of Palestinian refugees living in the occupied West Bank are Aslamis.
