Introduction

Overview

Utah’s linguistic demographics are rapidly evolving, with approximately one in seven Utah residents older than age five speaking a language other than English at home, and at least 36% of this population speaks English “less than very well.”1 The Utah Department of Health (UDOH) Office of Health Disparities (OHD) is committed to making clinical services and health care, as well as departmental services and resources, accessible to all members of the public. Effective and meaningful communication is essential to the success of Utah’s public health initiative and medical services. The information contained in this report is intended to assist all UDOH and local health department (LHD) facilities and programs, as well as Utah’s health providers, in serving limited English proficient (LEP) patients and clients.

Background

Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 is a national law prohibiting discrimination on the grounds of race, color, and national origin by any federally-funded program. Subsequent clarification on Title VI and limited-English proficiency (LEP) from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ (US HHS) Office of Civil Rights (OCR) recommends that federally-funded health care agencies and providers create plans to provide written materials in non-English languages “when a significant number or percentage of the population eligible to be served, or likely to be directly affected by the program/activity, needs services or information in a language other than English to communicate effectively.”2 “Eligible LEP language [groups constitute] five percent or 1,000, whichever is less, of the population of persons eligible to be served or likely to be affected or encountered.”3 All UDOH/LHD programs and health providers receiving federal funding should be aware of this guideline and appropriately plan and provide services for LEP populations and areas.

This statute, as well as professional best practices and industry trends, have created interest in the Culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Services (CLAS) standards created by the US HHS’s Office of Minority Health. The CLAS standards aim to systematically advance health equity and ensure the delivery of culturally respectful and linguistically responsive health care and services. CLAS guidelines were developed for use by all federally-funded health programs and are highly encouraged to be adopted by all health organizations regardless of funding sources. Given Utah’s shifting sociocultural, racial/ethnic, and linguistic demographics, increased compliance with CLAS standards in state and local

Purpose

The following data are intended to guide state, county, and local public health and health care professionals in planning and providing services for LEP patients and clients. The report aims to assist providers in:

 Increasing understanding of patient or client populations and service areas;  Anticipating and planning for needed language services;  Assessing the appropriateness of current language services;  Advancing culturally and linguistically appropriate patient or client interactions; and  Improving institutional compliance with CLAS standards related to communication and language assistance.

Overall, the information in this report is for general reference and cannot account for all of the cultural, regional, and linguistic diversity found within LEP or non-English speaking populations in Utah.

Comment on Language Diversity

The languages outlined in the tables below are defined by the U.S. Census Bureau. Some languages may be categories themselves or grouped into broader language categories. Regardless, organizations and providers should be aware that many languages have distinct dialects and/or regional differences. Thus, speakers of a common language may actually be unintelligible to one another. Therefore, when arranging for appropriate language services, details such as dialect and region should be considered.

Methodology

Data was sourced from the U.S. Census Bureau’s American Community Survey. Data from the 2009-2013 American Community Survey, released in October 2015, was used to create the table for the top 20 languages in the state of Utah. This is the most current and detailed language data available for the state. Data from the 2010-2014 American Community Survey was used to create the tables for the top languages in the local health districts and counties. This is the most current and detailed language data available for the local health districts and counties. For further information on the surveys’ sample sizes and data quality measures visit: https://www.census.gov/programs-surveys/acs/methodology.html.

The table for the Top 20 Languages in the state of Utah was constructed using data from the Detailed Languages Spoken at Home and Ability to Speak English for Population 5 Years and Over for States dataset. The full dataset can be accessed at https://www.census.gov/data/tables/2013/demo/2009- 2013-lang-tables.html. Counts for total population 5 years and older, the number of speakers, those

3 who speak a language other than English at home, and those who speak English less than “very well” were taken directly from the dataset. Languages were ordered highest to lowest by absolute number of speakers. Percentages were derived by dividing the number of speakers by the total population, multiplying by 100, and rounding to the nearest hundredth percent. The top 20 languages were selected excluding language categories (e.g., Asian and Pacific Island languages) and grouped language categories (e.g., Other Indic languages). Inclusive language categories (e.g., Chinese incl. Cantonese, Mandarin, and other Chinese languages) when encountered were preferred.

Tables for the top languages by local health district were constructed using data from the by Ability to Speak English for the Population 5 years and Over dataset. The full dataset can be accessed at http://factfinder.census.gov/faces/nav/jsf/pages/searchresults.xhtml?refresh=t. Data was used from the Top Languages by County tables and counties were combined according to local health district: Bear River (Box Elder, Cache, Rich counties), Central Utah (Juab, Millard, Piute, Sevier, Wayne, Sanpete counties), Davis County, Salt Lake County, San Juan County, Southeast Utah (Carbon, Emery, Grand counties), Southwest Utah (Garfield, Iron, Kane, Washington, Beaver counties), Summit County, Tooele County, TriCounty (Daggett, Duchesne, Uintah counties), Utah County, Wasatch County, and Weber-Morgan. Languages were ordered from highest to lowest by absolute number of speakers and those who speak English less than “very well,” and if necessary, by alphabetical order. The top 20 languages were selected and for local health districts with less than 20 languages, all languages were selected. When encountered, language categories (e.g., Scandinavian languages) and grouped language categories (e.g., Other Indic languages) were included.

Tables for the top languages by county were constructed using data from the Language Spoken at Home by Ability to Speak English for the Population 5 years and Over dataset. The full dataset can be accessed at http://factfinder.census.gov/faces/nav/jsf/pages/searchresults.xhtml?refresh=t. Counts for total population 5 years and older, the number of speakers, those who only speak English, and those who speak English less than “very well” were taken directly from the dataset. Languages were ordered from highest to lowest by absolute number of speakers, those who speak English less than “very well,” smallest margin of error, and if necessary, alphabetical order. The top 20 languages were selected and for counties with less than 20 languages, all languages were selected. When encountered, language categories (e.g., Scandinavian languages) and grouped language categories (e.g., Other Indic languages) were included.

Margin of Error

The numbers in the tables below are calculated from a sample of people and not the entire population. Because of this, the numbers are solid estimates, but prone to sampling error or some inaccuracy. The margin of error column in each table is an indicator of how different the numbers might be if everyone was included in the survey instead of a sample. The margin of error is used to create a range of numbers that should include the exact number. This is done by subtracting the margin of error from the estimate and adding the margin of error to the estimate. For example, in the state of Utah the number of Korean speakers is estimated to be 4,614. However, the margin of error is 659, so the real number of Korean

4 speakers could be any number between 3,955 and 5,273. A 90 percent margin of error is used for these tables, meaning there is a high probability that the range contains the exact number.

Resources

The Office of Health Disparities (OHD) has developed a number of resources to assist organizations and providers in providing culturally and linguistically appropriate services. A Class About CLAS, accompanying Discussion Guide, and CLAS Toolkit are tools to learn about, discuss, and implement CLAS Standards. The Workforce Diversity Fact Sheet acts as guide for diversifying a workforce. The Translation Toolkit and Manual explain how to ensure high quality translations for written materials. For help identifying the 35 most commonly encountered languages in Utah, the Language Identification Booklet is available. OHD has also compiled an easy to navigate Multilingual Library of health resources and topics in more than 30 different languages and dialects. You can search by language, health topic, or target population. The most recent tool created by OHD is the Language Services Guide that assists UDOH employees in locating translation and interpretation vendors. Audio resources are also available through EthnoMed for visually impaired or low literacy patients. Other resources available include Think Cultural Health by the Office of Minority Health and Utah Medicaid, CHIP and PCN Interpreter Services.

*At least 1,350 reported speaking Cantonese and 2,100 speaking Mandarin Notes: 1 Detailed-language estimates are rounded to the nearest multiple of five. Aggregate estimates (bold-face entries) are unrounded and appear in table B16001 (http://factfinder.census.gov/bkmk/table/1.0/en/ACS/13_5YR/B16001/0400000US49). Detailed-language estimates may not sum to aggregate estimates because of rounding. 2 Data are based on a sample and are subject to sampling variability. The degree of uncertainty for an estimate arising from sampling variability is represented through the use of a margin of error. The value shown here is the 90 percent margin of error. The margin of error can be interpreted roughly as providing a 90 percent probability that the interval defined by the estimate minus the margin of error and the estimate plus the margin of error (the lower and upper confidence bounds) contains the true value. In addition to sampling variability, the ACS estimates are subject to nonsampling error (for a discussion of nonsampling variability, see Accuracy of the Data at http://www2.census.gov/programs-surveys/acs/tech_docs/accuracy/MultiyearACSAccuracyofData2013.pdf). The effect of nonsampling error is not represented in these tables. 3 N.E.C. stands for not elsewhere classified. These are languages where respondents indicated they spoke either Indian or Pakistan. For Indian, it cannot be determined if the respondent spoke a native American language or spoke a language from India. For Pakistan, respondents wrote in Pakistan but it cannot be determined which one of the languages spoken in Pakistan is actually being spoken. To distinguish these languages, N.E.C. is used to indicate they are not classified in any other language code. 4 This category includes literal write-ins of Chinese as well as Hakka, Kan, Hsiang, Cantonese, Mandarin, Fuchow, Formosan, and Wu. (D) Data withheld to avoid disclosure. (B) Either no sample observations or too few sample observations were available to compute an estimate. (X) Question does not apply. -- Either no sample observations or too few sample observations were available to compute a standard error and thus the margin of error. A statistical test is not appropriate. Source: U.S. Census Bureau, 2009-2013 American Community Survey
