Ontario interpreting services Ontario Interpreting Services (OIS) provides interpreting services across Ontario for American and Quebec sign language in some regions. They cover a range of public and personal events.
Workplace accessibility The workplace accessibility program assesses the workplace to ensure that there are no barriers for the deaf and hard of hearing. It provides seminars to "increase awareness of hearing loss in the workplace". The main aim is to offer technical solutions to

smoke alarms) for the home,
