Our
Mission
linguistics for change
As allies, we inform, educate, and advocate for translation and interpretation services in our communities. We train compassionate and ethical translators and interpreters and provide professional, certified translation and interpretation services and language research. We educate our communities to be more multilingual through language and linguistics courses, and supplement English-based curriculum with heritage language support to help families maintain and honor their languages. We are crusaders for K-12 and post-secondary foreign language education that promotes mutual understanding within communities.
