An interpreter for the deaf is called a sign language interpreter. They help facilitate communication between people who use sign language and those who do not.
A Deaf interpreter is a Deaf person who is a native user of (ie) American Sign Language-ASL, and a member of the Deaf community. The interpreter can work as a bridge between a Deaf person, an interpreter and the non- signing hearing person. For example, the Deaf person may be from another country, and cannot rely on the interpreter alone, the Deaf interpreter watches the interpreter then modifies the communication in order that the Deaf person has a better understanding of the message.

These classes help develop proficiency in ASL, understanding of the interpreting process, knowledge of deaf culture, and ethical guidelines for interpreters.

You should say "Services Interpereted for the Hearing Impaired". My name is Jennifer and I'm studying to become an ASL interpreter. For the record, Deaf people hate the term "Hearing Impaired". It's an insult. The correct way would be "Services interpreted for the Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing".
