Language World Services Inc. is Northern California 's largest healthcare and community interpreting agency that specializes in dispatching bi-lingual professional interpreters for face-to-face assignments for healthcare, government, insurance cases, and legal assignments throughout California.

As a professional service provider, whether you work in healthcare, social services, or government, you have been faced with the challenge of trying to communicate with your Limited English Proficient (LEP) clients.  New laws and a dawning understanding of best practices in a multi-lingual service environment have changed the way your communication is delivered.  Asking your clients to find someone to “translate for you” can no longer be considered the best choice for communicating to your LEP clients and their families.

We believe that face-to-face interpreting is a high level professional service, requiring an intellectual capacity, educational background, continual learning, and an emotional maturity necessary to speak difficult words and broker understanding to LEP patients throughout California’s schools, government agencies, hospitals, and human service offices.

We do not believe that purposeful interpreting should be regarded as an afterthought, where children and untrained as well as unscreened individuals are continually drafted on an ad hoc basis to serve as the vital linguistic and cultural link to the Limited English-Proficient client.
