About the presentation

In this presentation, Gonzales will share examples from her collaborations
with Indigenous language interpreters and translators and other minoritized
language speakers to present tips and strategies for collaborating with
multilingual community members in healthcare contexts. While healthcare
providers are increasingly working with language lines and other
translation services to provide language access, it is important to expand
training opportunities for healthcare practitioners to effectively work
with multilingual communities. A language line or written translation will
not be effective if healthcare practitioners are not properly trained to
communicate with multilingual community members through these services.
This presentation will include new frameworks and orientations for engaging
with multilingual community members in healthcare contexts.
