Hello everyone,
Just want to let you know about a service opportunity for
bilingual/multilingual students.
Thanks,
Janine

Hello Xiaolu and Janine,
My name is Johane and I am a part of the Language Access Team in the Office
of Civil Rights at Boston Housing Authority(BHA). One of our initiatives is
the Volunteer Interpreters Program(VIP), through which we encourage
community members to volunteer their language skillls to interpret for low
income and immigrant families going through the housing process.
We are currently seeking bilingual and multilingual students who speak
Chinese, Vietnamese, Khmer, Somali, Haitian Creole, Portuguese, Cape
Verdean, Spanish, Albanian, Russian, Arabic, French (and other languages) to
participate in our Volunteer Interpreters Program. It would be a great way
for students to supplement their academic studies, and to impact social
change by working directly with homeless, limited English proficient
families in the Boston area.
I've attached our packet info, flyer and application. Please feel free to
forward, print, and share these documents with your students and staff. Also
feel free to contact me with any questions.
Thank you and we look forward to the possibility of working with some
members of Harvard Dudley House.
--Johane
