NY Language Services Worker Co-Op Project
African Communities Together (ACT) will incubate and launch three worker-owned, language service co-ops to serve African, Asian, and indigenous Latin Americans who speak languages that are not spoken widely (Languages of Limited Diffusion or LLDs). Translation services for these individuals are frequently cost prohibitive and are not widely available, leaving individuals who speak these languages vulnerable. ACT will develop a replicable model that includes recruiting, training, certifying, and providing ongoing support to worker-owners.
