Why California agencies choose Taika
Serve every resident in their language — and stay ahead of every mandate.
Nearly 44% of California households speak a language other than English, and about 19% of residents speak English less than “very well” (California Dept. of Justice) — so meaningful language access is central to serving the public. 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.
Languages for California
The languages California needs most — and 300+ more.
Spanish is by far the most-requested language, but California's courts interpret in dozens more. The languages California courts most often need include:
- Spanish
- Mandarin
- Vietnamese
- American Sign Language (ASL)
- Punjabi
- Cantonese
- Arabic
- Korean
- Russian
- Eastern Armenian
- Farsi (Persian)
- Tagalog / Filipino
- Portuguese
…and 300+ more. Taika translates and interprets in 300+ languages through 5,000+ 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.

What we love that California is doing
California is investing in language access.
A few initiatives — in the areas we work in every day — that we admire:
Dymally-Alatorre Bilingual Services Act
California requires state agencies serving substantial non-English-speaking populations to provide bilingual staff and translated materials — a landmark commitment to language access we're proud to support.
CalHHS agency-wide Language Access Policy
The California Health & Human Services Agency directs each department to build a Language Access Plan so people with limited English proficiency can reach health and social services.
