Language Access

Diversity and Inclusion Liaisons (DILs) assist their agencies with communicating their resources and ensuring effective service delivery across Nevada’s minority populations. 

If you would like to request assistance in your preferred language please submit a request using this form: https://hal.nv.gov/form/DIDs/Language_Access_Assistance

In the short term, we recommend using the Google Translate function at the bottom of the page.

The Department's Language Access Plan is available here.
