Family Bridges Social Services Program

Family Bridges' Oakland social-services program helps East Bay residents find resources, pursue citizenship, and understand English-language letters and bills from 168 11th Street. Service languages include Cantonese, Mandarin, Toishanese, and English, plus on-demand phone interpretation for other languages.

The current page also seeks Cantonese- and Mandarin-speaking volunteers to help seniors with paperwork. That volunteer path is useful if you have language skills and daytime availability.

Bring the letter or bill you need decoded, and ask for your language at check-in.
