For Jennifer Mountney, American Sign Language has always been part of her life, since she'd been interpreting for her mother from a young age. She was later introduced to CNIB by her sister, who worked for the organization, allowing for a natural transition into her role as an intervenor at CNIB Deafblind Community Services.
