Today we would like to feature an article written by Lynn Fors, certified healthcare interpreter working with English and Spanish in Kentucky. She is also the Executive Director of Access Language Solutions, a non-profit whose goal is to address the shortage of professional interpretation and translation services available to non-profit organizations and government entities in Lexington, Kentucky.
We asked Lynn's permission to read her article here to you, but you can also check out her original post here. You can also read a very interesting article published by the American Bar Association and titled "Language Justice During COVID-19," which she mentioned in her post. And, if you'd like to support the efforts of the Access Language Solution non-profit organization, visit their donation page.
