This plan lays out actions DPH will undertake to ensure meaningful access to DPH services, programs, information, and activities for people who have limited English proficiency and various other communication needs. 

This comprehensive plan aligns with the Healey-Driscoll Administration's vision for language access across the Commonwealth, as outlined in Executive Order #615. In its strategies to eliminate language barriers for people throughout our state, this plan is a key component of advancing health equity in the Commonwealth.
