Presenting NITA
The Nevada Interpreters and Translators Association (NITA) was officially founded in 2008. NITA’s broadly defined goal is to advance and to elevate the quality and availability of language services in the State of Nevada. Our non-profit association (as per March 5th of 2009, NITA is classified as tax exempt under section 501(c)(6) of the Internal Revenue Code) is driven by an enthusiastic and diverse group of language professionals, all working together in pursuit of the highest language service standards for all stakeholders involved.
With your help, we’re advancing toward providing accessible, accountable and high-quality language services throughout our community.
NITA is proudly affiliated with and supports the American Translators Association (ATA).
