Kiswahili is the Swahili name for Swahili — the most widely spoken African language and a lingua franca across Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, and parts of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Around 200 million people use it, though most as a second language. In the United States our Kiswahili work is predominantly USCIS asylum and refugee documentation tied to ongoing conflicts in the African Great Lakes region, plus the healthcare and family-court translation that accompanies refugee resettlement.
