"There are at least 25 million people in the U.S. who speak a foreign language at home and that number is growing," said Scott Burns, CEO and co-Founder of GovDelivery. "As all government organizations work to create better lives for the public, success will hinge frequently on government's ability to ensure that the public has equal access to the important information and services needed."
The webinar will not only share tips for creating a multilingual email strategy, but best practices garnered by communicators at one of the most successful multicultural efforts within the Federal government, GobiernoUSA.gov.
The event will feature a presentation from Victoria Wales, Bilingual Web Content Manager and Leilani Martinez, Marketing and Outreach Team Lead en Federal Citizen Information Center, both at the U.S. General Services Administration.
