Here is an excerpt:

“Locally, the rising number of immigrants has also had an impact. At language services provider Geneva Worldwide Inc., where government contracts make up 85% of business, revenue grew 15% in 2009, hitting $5.75 million.

“The government can’t just say that it is going to stop servicing the Chinese-speaking community, for example,” says Craig Buckstein, chief operating officer at Geneva.

Among other assignments, the 107-year-old family business sends 50 to 70 interpreters daily to the Administration for Children’s Services in New York. They assist with family counseling and help caseworkers perform investigations when there are claims of abuse or neglect.”
