Know Your Rights TrainingsKnow Your Rights (KYR) trainings are an important part of our community outreach. Trainings inform community members of their rights under 2004's Language Access Act, which guarantees interpretation and translation services at all DC government agencies, as well as the right to file a complaint if language access rights are violated.
MLOV's staff, volunteers and interns conduct trainings in a variety of languages at community centers, ESL classrooms, places of worship and out in the streets. Participants in the training receive and learn to use an "I Speak" card, which can be used at government agencies to request interpretation services.
