Our founder and CEO, Michelle Salinas, likes to joke that we’re not technically a non-profit, but we practically operate like one.

That’s because we at Your Language Connection care about our Lancaster community and actively work to invest in its residents. Our language services are priced to be accessible for those who need them.

On the staffing side, we contract with many linguists who are new to this country and offer them the opportunity to see their language skills as an asset to themselves and a tool to help others. And, YLC gives back, generously supporting initiatives in our community—such as when we donated 5 percent of our profits to 5 local non-profits to celebrate our 25th anniversary.

We Are Proudly Local

We’re not like the big companies. We’re proudly local, and we’re proud to support the place we call home.

In doing so, we frequently partner with those hard-working organizations that perform critical labor to provide the essential services that keep our area functioning. We know that without the dedicated staff and generous volunteers that keep people in our area fed, clothed, sheltered, cared for, and appreciated, we wouldn’t be the strong, vibrant community that we are.

We value those whose mission is to help connect talent with jobs, and preserve access to healthcare and education. We see you and we appreciate you. When you partner with us, we are committed to seeing you succeed.
