Language Access in Monroe County

Monroe County is committed to reduce and eliminate language access barriers and provide meaningful language access to agency services, programs, resources, and activities. Monroe County’s Language Access Plan establishes guidelines for County departments and programs to follow when developing and implementing reasonable accommodations for individuals who have limited ability to read, speak, write, or understand English, also known as Limited English Proficient (LEP) individuals. Monroe County will provide interpreter and translation services free of charge to its constituents upon request.

If you are attending an upcoming visit and need a language access accommodation to participate fully, please fill out a language access request form. Monroe County can arrange reasonable accommodations for assistance in a language other than English with advance notice of at least fourteen business days.
