The article provides best practices for American Sign Language (ASL) interpreters during Zoom meetings. The interpreter should have a pre-meeting consultation with the host to ensure that the necessary measures are in place for an accessible meeting. During the meeting, the interpreter should be available early to establish a connection with the D/deaf or hard-of-hearing participants and ensure that videos are pinned. The interpreter should also identify the ASL user who is speaking and clearly communicate when the interpreters are switching. After the meeting, the interpreter should check in with the participants and hosts for feedback.
