Who is WASCLA?

WASCLA is an education and advocacy organization whose mission is to eliminate language barriers that prevent Washington residents from accessing essential services. We promote equity in communication for immigrants, refugees, and individuals who are Deaf or Hard-of-Hearing. WASCLA provides policy input on language access rights and responsibilities and how to create language assistance services that meet community needs; provides consultation and training on language access services; hosts a statewide Interpreter and Translator directory;and other activities to promote robust language access services.
