Arkansas Code Title 21. Public Officers and Employees § 21-5-218. Reimbursement for interpreter services for deaf

Whereas Arkansas Rehabilitation Services currently purchases and sells staff interpreter services for the deaf with four (4) other agencies, the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, the Arkansas School for the Deaf, and the Administrative Office of the Courts and whereas the need for interpreters is immediate and often for crisis purposes and cannot be planned ahead, the Division of Workforce Services is authorized to arrange for reimbursement with those agencies, assuring that the amount paid from both agencies will not exceed the maximum for the grades they occupy consistent with the intent of § 19-4-1604, with notification and justification to the Secretary of the Department of Transformation and Shared Services.
