LEP Guide for Law Enforcement

Body

Federal law requires law enforcement agencies that receive federal financial assistance to take reasonable steps to provide meaningful access to persons with limited English proficiency (LEP).

Both the U.S. Department of Justice and U.S. Department of Homeland Security provide guidance for funding recipients on the obligation to provide meaningful access to LEP individuals.

The following provides guidance on strategies for your agency to ensure language access, resources for obtaining language services, and possible funding sources for your agency.
