Discussion List for campus-based and allied personnel working to end gender-based violence on campus.

Hi Linda

 

I have used Language Line Services in the past http://www.languageline.com/

 

Here is a FAQ about translation - http://www.languageline.com/page/dt_faq/

 

And another company here - http://www.propio-ls.com/document-translation.html

 

With any company you pick, I would highly recommend a large national company. We once had a local printed who said that could easily have the brochure translated into Spanish and when we had someone read it, it was junk and actually could have misinformed people.  When we asked about it, they said they use online translation. We learned from that.

 

I hope this helps

Subject: help with translation of sexual violence information

 

Dear SAPC colleagues,

 

We are seeking information about where/how to get materials translated from a reliable and knowledgeable source on sexual violence. We are planning efforts to provide education for incoming international students this fall during orientation, and we have a large number of students coming from Saudi Arabia and China. We thought having handouts (and possibly powerpoint during the presentations) in various languages, starting with Arabic and Chinese, would be useful for these students.

 

If you could refer us to any resources, we would greatly appreciate it!

 

Thanks so much,

Linda Anderson
