American Sign Language (ASL) Interpretation Services

The contract seeks qualified providers to deliver certified American Sign Language interpretation services for legal and administrative proceedings through Video Remote Interpretation, ensuring compliance with Judicial Council of California standards. All interpreters must be certified and capable of facilitating accurate, real-time communication in high-stakes settings, with the expectation of technical reliability and professional conduct during remote interactions. Services are required to support equitable access to justice for Deaf and hard-of-hearing individuals across all proceedings under the purview of the California Civil Rights Department. This is a subcontract opportunity under NAICS code 611610, with responses due by July 13, 2026, and the solicitation was posted on June 29, 2026. The services will be performed remotely but must meet the same rigorous quality and adherence requirements as in-person interpretation mandated by state judicial authorities. While no specific geographic location is defined for performance, the interpretation must serve the operational needs of the California Civil Rights Department statewide. Vendors must be prepared to demonstrate certification, experience, and technical infrastructure capable of supporting secure, high-quality video sessions without interruption or delay.
