A person is switching between two different characters. One is a Deaf consumer and the other is someone who works for CSD.
Script:
Text reads on top (on the phone with the benefits office).
No, no it is an interpreter who is speaking for me. Wait, please don’t hang up. (Frustrated sigh)
CSD person: Hey.. you look frustrated.
Person: Yes I am frustrated. I was only curious and wanted to ask questions about how I can save money while keeping my SSI. I wish I understood more about that.
CSD: Actually, there is a resource that can help! Look at ABLE today’s website. They can help you understand how to save money while keeping your benefits and more!

No worries about having to use an interpreter, or misunderstandings, or hang ups, etc. It will be a direct communication between you and the ABLE today representative for the questions you may have.
Person: Wow, really!
