| Language Line
Using a grant provided by the United Way of the Capital
Region, CONTACT received funding to cover
the start up costs of using the Language Line. CONTACT
now has access to interpreters of over 150 languages enabling us to better assist our
limited English speaking callers.
In addition, the grant provided the money to pay for
the translation and printing of the CONTACT
Helpline informational brochure
and posters in Spanish. |
