IN-HOUSE BILINGUAL SUPPORT
From Kinsey–Office of DEI Leadership re: CAFE Program: In-House Bilingual Support
We are thrilled to have our first group of CAFE Program staff members in Bend-La Pine Schools! As a reminder, these bilingual staff are receiving a stipend as trained, qualified linguists who can support occasional translation/interpretation needs in our schools.
Some very important notes about this program:
- These folks do not replace Linguist Link. LL is our primary source for all translation/interpretation requests, and all requests (even most urgent ones) should continue to go through that system.
- CAFE Program services should be used for walk-ins, phone calls, or situations that could not be planned or predicted in advance, and/or for very small/short messages (i.e. needing to add a short addition to your school newsletter that you’d already sent through translation, or sending a quick text/email to a family).
- These staff members are not for translations of emergency situations—those should continue to go through our Communications and Multilingual Depts for support and translation.
- Each CAFE member has a log of hours, to track their time and effort. They will monitor and update supervisors regularly, and have the right to say No to a request if they are unable, uncomfortable, or have maxxed their hours.
- If you don’t have a staff member from your school/dept listed here, you are welcome to contact any of the folks on that list when a need arises. We’ll update the list as additional folks are tested and trained in the future.
