United Way of Lancaster County and Communication Essentials are partnering to support local efforts to advance language access and equity.
Lancaster-based non-for-profit organizations and governmental agencies are invited to apply to receive grant-funded technical assistance to assess their language access plan and help establish accessibility procedures and best practices. A limited number of organizations will receive training/technical assistance, translation, and/or interpretation services valued at up to $5,000 at no cost.
Applications will be accepted at https://tinyurl.com/languagejusticesurvey until Friday, Jan. 21. The survey takes about five minutes to complete, and all applicants will be notified of the final decision by email.
The Lancaster Language Justice Initiative is a pilot program sponsored in part by the Walters/Unitarian Universalist Church Trust, an endowment from Arthur and Selma Walters to the Unitarian Universalist Church of Lancaster in support of events that affirm the worth and dignity of all humans and that strive to increase the awareness of and respect for the environment.
Questions about the initiative and grant application process can be sent to grants@uwlanc.org.
