What Bilingual Therapies does

Bilingual Therapies (legally New Direction Solutions LLC, a Georgia LLC) is a U.S. education staffing agency founded in 1997 and headquartered in Peachtree Corners, Georgia, in the Atlanta metropolitan area. The company recruits, employs on a W2 basis, and places bilingual and culturally competent education professionals — including speech-language pathologists (SLPs), school psychologists, special education teachers, occupational therapists, physical therapists, BCBAs, sign language interpreters, deaf/hard-of-hearing teachers, and teachers of the visually impaired — into K-12 public and private school districts nationwide. The firm also offers Telepractice/Teletherapy services that allow placements regardless of geographic constraints, plus Speech & Language Evaluation services to districts.

The company's underlying technology is non-proprietary; it operates as a traditional staffing/recruitment business rather than a software platform, relying on a website job portal, SEO-optimized listings, an online forum (forum.bilingualtherapies.com), and standard third-party integrations (Google Analytics, social media plugins, Bloomz for parent communication). Its principal differentiator is a proprietary human-capital framework called Bilingual U — a six-competency training program (language proficiency, background knowledge, assessment, intervention, cultural competency, professional issues) delivered through a two-day workshop plus ongoing clinical mentorship, supported by a New Grad Program (Clinical Fellowship and internship placements), a Scholarship Program for prospective SLPs and school psychologists, and an annual Bilingual Therapies Symposium.

Bilingual Therapies monetizes as a managed-services staffing firm: it acts as the W2 employer of record for placed clinicians, paying salary plus a benefits package (medical/dental/vision insurance, 401(k) matching, paid association dues, conference days, mentoring, referral bonuses, and continuing education funds) and billing school districts at contract rates that vary by position type, caseload, and geography — e.g., BCBA contract roles quoted at $43.50-$71.22 per hour in Connecticut and New Jersey. Customer segments are K-12 school districts (primary, vertical segment) and individual education professionals (secondary, horizontal segment). Go-to-market combines direct enterprise outreach to district clients with a self-serve job portal and content marketing (blog, symposium, forum) targeting clinicians. The company has 101-250 employees, no disclosed parent company or institutional investors, and no public funding history.

Revenue model

1. Staffing/Placement Fees: Bilingual Therapies acts as the employer of record (W2) for placed clinicians and bills school districts for their services. Revenue is generated through the margin between the clinician's compensation and the district's contract rate. Contract educators receive salary, benefits, and professional development while the company earns a markup on their billing rate.
