Connecting Cultures Inc Information

Connecting Cultures was founded on the philosophy that if we took care of our staff and their families, we would provide the best language services available to the medical community and provide equal access to healthcare for the limited-English speaking patients in our community. In 2000, Connecting Cultures started out as an interpreting agency with one interpreter and an office manager. In the past decade it has grown into a professional language access planning consulting firm with more than 25 employees. Connecting Cultures uses systems developed over time to bring quality and success to our language services. We use those systems to implement programs that meet the language access needs of healthcare facilities, big and small.
