New York, United States Mission Essential Full time

Position Description:

Mission Essential has work supporting Health and Human Services (HHS) providing refugee support to unaccompanied minors in need of interpretation services. We are looking for linguists who speak Mandarin at a 2+IRL level. Linguists shall interpret information to and for Care Staff and other individuals, as appropriate. Linguists serve as Communication Liaisons to ensure accurate, impartial, and confidential interpretation is available in a variety of settings. Services shall be rendered in-person.


Linguist translation and interpretation support shall:


• Provide in-person, onsite interpretation at Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) programs and service sites.

• Relay important deadlines, instructions, questions, and other communication from Support Care Staff to UC/UAM/URM in their native or preferred language.

• Assist UC/UAM/URM in communicating any concerns, questions, or other information to staff when UC/UAM/URM are not fluent or comfortable speaking English or the language spoken by Care Staff.

• Provide translation/interpretation services to aid in orienting UC/UAM/URM to community resources as requested.

• Assist staff with building rapport and understanding the cultural context of the ORR populations they serve. The linguist does not replace the role of the program(s) case manager or clinician, but rather serves as a person with which the UC/UAM/URM can build a cultural connection. To the extent possible, conversations must remain lighthearted to alleviate stress and anxiety of the children linguist services are being provided to.
