About this Opportunity

Literacy Source is an adult education non-profit located in the Lake City neighborhood of North Seattle. We work with a diverse population of English language learners who together speak over 40 languages. Literacy Source offers classes in English, GED, Adult Foundational Skills, and citizenship as well as legal services for people applying for US citizenship.

Volunteer interpreters will work with our Citizenship Program Manager to help students prepare applications, obtain documents, and interpret at US Citizenship and Immigration Services appointments.

Applicants with professional skills in Amharic, Tigrinya, Oromo, Mandarin, or Somali are encouraged to apply. Experience working with adult immigrants and/or refugees is an additional plus.

Literacy Source is an equal opportunity employer working towards a culturally diverse workplace. We strongly encourage applications from the BIPOC community, immigrants, refugees, women, people with disabilities, members of the LBGTQ community and other underrepresented and historically marginalized groups.
