Support for Translation and Interpretation Program

For community organizations in New Brunswick, offering services and information in both official languages can be essential to reaching the people they serve. The Support for Translation and Interpretation Program helps not-for-profit organizations cover the cost of professional language services so they can engage more effectively with both English- and French-speaking communities. The program reflects the province’s commitment to linguistic duality and is intended to remove financial barriers that might otherwise limit bilingual participation at public events or access to key information.

Delivered through the Executive Council Office, this non-repayable funding can provide support of up to around $10,000 to offset eligible translation and interpretation expenses. It is commonly used for interpreting services at conferences, annual meetings, or public forums, as well as for translating documents such as bylaws, reports, training materials, promotional content, or websites that are meant for members or the general public. Funding is typically provided as a reimbursement once the project is complete, helping organizations recover costs tied directly to professional language services.

Applications are accepted on an ongoing basis, making this program especially useful for nonprofits planning upcoming events or preparing materials for public release. For New Brunswick organizations looking to strengthen bilingual engagement and better serve diverse audiences, learning more about how this program works could be a valuable next step.
