About Us

AVAZA Language Services Corporation (AVAZA LSC) has provided foreign language interpreting and translating services to government agencies and healthcare networks since 2001.  With an initial goal to bridge communication gaps, a major factor in healthcare disparities, we focused on an effective language service model that directly addresses missed opportunities and health outcomes. This was essentially the beginning of AVAZA, more importantly, a blueprint of practices that focused on creating meaningful language assistance through language service components.  Looking back in over a decade of service, we have not changed in our desire to create access, but we have changed in standardizing how.

Located in Nashville, Tennessee,

AVAZA is a certified SBA 8(a) business and certified Minority Business through the Governor’s Office of Diversity Business Enterprise, State of Tennessee.
