WHO WE ARE

People Passionate About Communication

“Our mission is to connect businesses and organizations to the people they serve, by bridging the language and cultural divide”

Jeannette Houchens | President & Founder

FOUNDED ON PASSION & PROFESSIONALISM
HIT Services was founded in 2010 by Jeannette Houchens, a certified Spanish interpreter with a business background. 
Jeannette started her language career in her native country of Colombia, in 1997, and her passion for excellence in interpretation and translation motivated her to become an active part of the interpreting profession. 
Early on while working as a freelance interpreter, Jeannette recognized the crucial need for better language services that combine linguistic expertise with cultural and diversity awareness.  Now a South Carolina Certified Court Interpreter as well as a Certified Medical Interpreter (CMI-Spanish), Jeannette leads an experienced team geared not only to help providers meet legal requirements, but to provide a solution that increases effective communication, and bridges the cultural divide.

12 YEARS & GROWING

From the beginning, HIT Services has provided the tools that allow our customers to successfully create and maintain diverse and inclusive environments, as well as to comply with important equal access laws.

We have served different public and private organizations, including comprehensive health care systems, private medical practices, courts, non-profit organizations, school districts, and private companies.  We continue to build our customer base, guided by the desire to help our customers succeed in their efforts to serve their diverse clients and become more competitive in the market.

In recent years we have focused our attention on the advancement of the interpretation industry in SC, by supporting local interpreters with educational opportunities and resources to improve their qualifications and skills.

We have also taken active steps to create awareness of the the crucial role that cultural competency plays in effective communication, by creating training and materials that our partners can access and use to provide more inclusive and diverse environments in their organizations.
