*Agenda*: Commissioners will hold a public meeting (roundtable) to moderate panel discussions on the following topics: (1) The importance of accurate, legal, and culturally competent translation for limited-English proficiency voters and best practices for implementing new language programs, including serving voters with disabilities, (2) How jurisdictions have implemented effective language assistance plans to better serve voters in their communities, (3) Highlighting innovative and practical ways jurisdictions have addressed languages challenges, and (4) Design elements, budget impacts and helpful tips to stretch funds for the greatest results.
