If not, please see this short guide, which may be a helpful starting place.

Additional resources include youtube videos and free textbooks.

Whatever format you choose to educate and prepare yourself for trauma informed language interpretation, it is imperative you do so. Not just for those we are helping, but for yourself: as you will find, vicarious trauma can be quite upsetting, but it is avoidable when proper measures are taken by the translator.
