Ayuda’s Interpreter Banks

Legal & Non-Legal Victim Services Providers

We value our partnership with you.

Thank you for your support of the Ayuda Interpreter Bank.

We strive to continue our partnership, offering the following free services to ensure that you are meeting your legal and ethical obligations when it comes to communicating with your clients and potential clients, while also ensuring that you are able to assist those you help, regardless of the language spoken by them:

• Specially-trained, in-person interpreters working in many languages, including but not limited to, Spanish, Amharic, French, Vietnamese, and American Sign Language.  
• Community Legal Bank interpreters are trained in the attorney/client privilege, confidentiality, and the unauthorized practice of law.
• Victim Services Bank interpreters have all completed training on how to work in the victim-services setting.
• Please note that you can request an interpreter in advance for both of our banks. We offer immediate assistance only for our Non-Legal Victim Services; interpreters can be requested at any time of the day or night, every day of the year.
• Telephonic interpretation in more than 200 languages, available at any hour of the day or night, every day of the year. Some exclusions apply as per grant funding; please contact us with ay specific questions.
• Translation of documents into dozens of languages.

If you ever have any question or concerns, please contact [email protected].
