Ladon Language Project was created in a Spring 2016 class in the University of California, Berkeley - a school with a rich history of social and political activism. Ladon brings the community together to bridge language barriers. We form a network of compassionate, well-trained, bilingual and bicultural language assistants who will go the extra mile to provide language support. More than half of Ladon language assistants are first-generation college students. We strongly believe that by bridging language barriers, we can help bridge the opportunity gap for underserved communities.

Ladon (pronounced as /lah-dawn/) is a multi-headed dragon in Greek mythology; each head can speak a different voice. It is an emblem of our mission to bridge language barriers. We care a lot about non-English speaking communities and we hope you do too.

Ladon is a social initiative supported by Clinton Global Initiative University, Westly Foundation and The Resolution Project.
