Over the past month, the Language Steering Committee has continued to provide translation and interpretation services to Area 72.
One notable achievement was the Corrections Committee securing approval from the Finance Committee to provide interpretation for an attending Corrections Chair from District 1. Thanks to the efforts of our lead interpreter, Claudia, interpretation services were successfully provided at the Corrections Quarterly. Additionally, we are preparing to offer Spanish interpretation at the Central Districts Pre-Conference on March 23rd. On the translation front, a host of documents have been completed for various committees and elected trusted servants to support their work.
We held our monthly Language Steering Committee meeting this month, during which we elected a new Secretary! A special thanks to Joe T., DCM for District 19, for stepping up. In other news, our interpretation equipment was loaned out for the Burien Little Assembly. We’re grateful to Bob F., past Delegate from Panel 49, for taking custody of the equipment after the event, saving me a long drive from the Olympic Peninsula.
As Language Chair, I’m excited about the upcoming April Quarterly and look forward to sharing more detailed updates in my Quarterly Report. Thank you for the opportunity to be of service!
Sincerely,
Charley P.
