How to get started
Interpretation Support
Provide spoken interpretation during client meetings, phone calls, or virtual appointments.
For unaccompanied and separated children navigating the immigration system, being unable to communicate in their preferred language can add fear and confusion to an already overwhelming experience. Volunteer interpreters and translators help children better understand important information and participate more fully in decisions that affect their future.
Provide spoken interpretation during client meetings, phone calls, or virtual appointments.
Translate documents, forms, educational materials or client communications.
Many opportunities can be completed remotely, and in-person support is available in select office areas.
As I am bilingual, being a translator was the best and most impactful way I could be part of the work KIND is doing. The clients are navigating so much—a new country, home, language, legal system, and being able to offer support in a small way feels so important.

An individual’s ability to communicate fluently, learn how to function in an increasingly complex and intellectually demanding world, or simply have meaningful engagement with other people can be severely impacted by a lack of accessible language.
Your language skills can help children navigate critical moments with clarity, dignity, and support.
