World Relief Wisconsin

In response to the arrival of 60,000 Afghan refugees, including 188 resettled in the Appleton area, World Relief Wisconsin faced a shortage of Dari and Pashto interpreters. The limited local Afghan population meant existing resources could not meet demand.

That’s why World Relief Wisconsin partnered with Boostlingo to enable case workers and partners to connect to qualified interpreters from any device.

“Our staff can access interpreters across devices—cell phones, iPads, and laptops—making interpretation accessible wherever it’s needed. The platform supports three-way calls, which allows us to handle urgent messages or reminders effectively.” — Susie Brekke, Associate Director of Integration and Wellness
