  • Language Access Plan Template
    MASSACHUSETTS EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT AGENCY Language Access Plan I. Introduction The Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency (“MEMA”) has prepared this Language Access Plan (“LAP”), which defines the actions to be taken by MEMA to ensure meaningful access to agency services, programs and activities on the part of persons who have limited English proficiency. This LAP outlines the steps that MEMA will take, given fiscal feasibility, to ensure meaningful access to its services by NES and LEP1. MEMA will review and update, on a biannual basis, this LAP in order to ensure continued responsiveness to community needs and compliance with the Executive Office for Administration and Finance (“ANF”) Administrative Bulletin #16. II. Purpose The purpose of this plan is to ensure individuals served by MEMA have meaningful access to services, programs and activities although they may be limited in their English language proficiency. MEMA is committed to this Language Access Plan as the appropriate response to meeting our clients’ needs. The Plan is consistent with the requirements of Administrative Bulletin #16 as promulgated by the Executive Office of Administration and Finance. III. Role of MEMA and its Services MEMA is the state agency with primary responsibility for ensuring the state’s resilience to disasters. MEMA’s staff of professional planners, communications specialists, operations managers and support personnel is committed to an all hazards approach to emergency management. By building and sustaining effective partnerships with federal, state and local government agencies, and with the private sector - individuals, families, non-profits and businesses - MEMA ensures the Commonwealth’s ability to rapidly recover from large and small disasters by assessing and mitigating hazards, enhancing preparedness, ensuring effective response, and building the capacity to recover.
