Join FOCUS for a hybrid public forum centered on language services that help meet the needs of our regionโs diverse community. Panelists will share perspectives on current challenges, emerging opportunities, and the work occurring across Central New York to ensure language services meet the needs of youth, adult newcomers, and families, making information and services accessible to residents of all ages. Panelists will highlight how residents navigate cultural and language expectations across school, workplace, and healthcare settings, sharing insight into real-world language use and barriers. After opening remarks from our panel, the conversation moves into a moderated Q&A, giving attendees the opportunity to ask questions, and explore how language access efforts connect with civic participation, including opportunities to engage though volunteering and support of community initiatives. This forum offers a welcoming, respectful space for community members to learn, engage, and explore meaningful pathways to strengthen the civic life of Central New York.
