Overview

This plan describes how the City of Minneapolis will improve access to City services for people who speak limited English.

One in five Minneapolis residents speak a language other than English in their homes. This means that increasingly, City of Minneapolis employees are providing services to people who may not speak fluent English. This plan offers a systematic approach for adapting City services to meet the needs of these individuals.
