According to the US Census 2020 American Community Survey, 25 million people over the age of 5 have limited English proficiency (LEP)—8.2% of the population. Even when health providers and their patients speak the same language, things can get lost in communication. Imagine the communication barriers for individuals with LEP in these moments when clearly understanding the discussion is critical. Using data, this workshop will showcase the need for linguistically appropriate services, and participants will learn different styles of language-appropriate services, identify scenarios in which these should be implemented, and appreciate linguistically appropriate services as a strategy to create inclusive environments that promote health equity.
