VerbatUm Interpretation Services
The South Carolina Network of Children’s Advocacy Centers (SCNCAC) has partnered with VerbatUm to provide professional interpretation services for member Children’s Advocacy Centers (CACs) across South Carolina. Interpretation services are available for forensic interviews, forensic medical examinations, therapy sessions, victim advocacy, and any other situation where accurate communication is essential.
VerbatUm delivers fast, secure, and confidential interpretation services that help CACs communicate effectively with children and families who speak languages other than English. By connecting CACs with qualified professional interpreters, SCNCAC helps ensure every child and caregiver has meaningful access to trauma-informed, child-focused services.
