Language Bank

Language Bank gives organizations across New England direct access to professional interpretation, translation, and transcription services in more than 150 languages. Based in Manchester, NH, and operating as a nonprofit social enterprise, it has spent two decades building a network of skilled language professionals who bring both linguistic accuracy and genuine cultural fluency to every engagement. For businesses that need reliable language outsourcing without the overhead of building an internal team, Language Bank offers a practical, mission-driven alternative. The service portfolio covers four main areas: interpretation, translation, transcription, and language training. Transcription services are available for audio and video content, with support for closed captioning and text-based file formats. The team specifically notes that these services are well-suited to the legal industry, where precision matters and errors carry real consequences. Interpretation and translation work spans the full breadth of the company's 150-plus language network, and training resources are available for bilingual individuals looking to become professional interpreters. Legal organizations are a core client segment, but the broader base includes any institution or business in the region that needs to communicate across language barriers. New England's diverse population creates consistent demand across sectors, and Language Bank's depth in refugee and immigrant communities means its interpreters often have lived experience with the languages and cultures they serve, not just classroom fluency. What sets Language Bank apart operationally is its structure as a nonprofit under its parent organization, Ascentria Care Alliance, one of New England's established refugee resettlement agencies. Many of the interpreters and translators it employs are refugees resettled through Ascentria, which means the organization's business model and its workforce pipeline are directly connected. Clients access services through a dedicated online portal, and a team of schedulers and office staff handles coordination. For companies considering a back-office or BPO company USA-style approach to managing multilingual communication, this kind of infrastructure removes the burden of sourcing and vetting interpreters independently. Organizations looking to outsource language services to a provider with two decades of regional experience and a workforce rooted in the communities it serves should connect with Language Bank directly through their website or reach out via LinkedIn to learn more about available services.
