The Open Doors Initiative

The Open Doors pilot program will be released in two phases. The first phase is currently underway and will be in partnership with affordable housing adjacent nonprofits who desire to increase their language access. The second phase will be launched Summer of 2024 to provide services to  members of our community who do not speak English as a first language for access to no-cost interpreting and translation services related to affordable housing related needs. This may mean contacting property owners, translating notices, providing an interpreter for a housing related appointment, etc.

In the first year, we are serving members of our community who speak Spanish, Arabic, and Burmese. 

World Speaks is not an affordable housing or legal agency. We cannot provide any legal assistance or give legal advice. We do not have affordable housing resources or properties available.
