On Saturday, July 6, 2024, we celebrated Bridging the Gap Interpreting’s (BTGI) 17th anniversary with a heartfelt gathering at Johnson County Library – Lenexa City Center. This event, also available online, was part of our monthly meeting series where we explore the Interpreter’s Code of Ethics.
This month, we focused on the sixth canon: Accountability. We led an engaging discussion, sharing our experiences and insights on this important topic. Our commitment to accountability helps us maintain the highest standards of professionalism and integrity, binding us together as a team and community.
After our enriching discussion, we had a wonderful time enjoying cake and drinks with everyone attending in person. It was a joy to celebrate this milestone together.
The anniversary celebration was a testament to the strong sense of community within BTGI. We, along with the interpreters who are the backbone of our success, shared stories and memories that highlighted the bonds we’ve built over the years.
Looking ahead, we remain dedicated to enhancing our services and expanding our reach. We shared insights into upcoming projects and initiatives, emphasizing our commitment to innovation and excellence. We’re excited about the future and the opportunities it holds, with a focus on leveraging new technologies, expanding our service areas, and continuing to provide top-notch interpreting services to our clients.
We extend our deepest gratitude to all our interpreters who attended and made the event special. Your support and partnership are the cornerstones of our success. Together, we look forward to a bright and prosperous future.
