MINTI’s mission is to improve the means of communication between patients and health care providers. This is done by partnering with respective faculty at the Johns Hopkins Medical School and general clinics in Baltimore who provide us with opportunities to complete translation work. By translating medical documents into different languages, essential medical knowledge can be provided to audiences that would otherwise be unattainable. We are also trying to diminish the language barrier in Baltimore by partnering with Strong City Baltimore to volunteer in one-on-one English Language Acquisition (ELA) tutoring sessions.
