Interpreter service for funded NGOs
 |
Queensland Health recognises the importance for funded non-government organisations (NGOs) to have access to interpreter services to meet the language and communication needs of clients from culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) backgrounds.
Queensland Health Multicultural Services has implemented arrangements for funded NGOs to access departmentally funded interpreter services.
This means an interpreter will be provided at no charge to assist you with your client when your organisation requests and books an interpreter through the Queensland Health Interpreter Service for Queensland Health funded NGOs.
