SUMMARY:Language Access: The Lessons that COVID-19 have Reinforced

How does our language access plan monitoring help us achieve a more organized response? What went wrong\, and how can we be sure that we do not make those mistakes again? \nThrough this virtual training we will share lessons learned and answer these and other questions regarding language access preparedness\, responsiveness and monitoring.
