MIX is a program of the American Red Cross of Northeast Indiana providing free translation, interpretation, referral and tracing services to non-native English speakers in the community and cultural competency workshops to help local organizations effectively communicate with different cultural groups.

The MIX program serves all language groups through the help of bilingual volunteers. Services include translation of personal documents, in-house interpretation (such as assistance with phone calls and application forms), and referral to social service agencies.

The MIX also provides international tracing and messaging services to help clients communicate with their family members when they have been separated by war, conflict, or international disasters.
