Houston ISD serves roughly 70,000 English Learners across the district — one of the largest multilingual student populations in the nation (Houston ISD Multilingual Programs). Taika helps your agency meet Title VI, Section 1557, and ADA obligations without adding staff.

Certified translation

Certified and standard document translation for legal, medical, government, and academic use — signed certificate of accuracy for USCIS, court, and institutional submission.

Professional interpretation

On-site, on-demand phone (OPI), video-remote (VRI), and ASL / CART interpretation for service encounters, hearings, IEP meetings, and community events — scheduled or around the clock.

Section 508 & ADA compliance

Document and media remediation to Section 508 and WCAG 2.1 AA, plus captioning and subtitling — so your digital communications meet accessibility obligations.

Digital accessibility deadlines are coming

Under the ADA Title II web rule, public entities serving 50,000 or more must meet WCAG 2.1 AA by April 26, 2027; smaller entities and special district governments by April 26, 2028. We remediate documents, websites, and video captioning to close the gap — well ahead of the deadline.

The languages Houston ISD needs most — and 300+ more.

Houston ISD serves roughly 70,000 English learners. Spanish is by far the largest home language; its fastest-growing home languages include:

…and 300+ more. Taika translates and interprets in 300+ languages through 2,000+ vetted linguists — from the languages above to rare, Indigenous, and emerging languages most vendors can't staff. See every language we translate, or request your language — if your community speaks it, we can serve it.

Taika
