The sessions will be geared towards those who are working on development /implementation of guidelines for translation services and those in a position to impact policy and implementation. Yolanda Partida, the Director of the National Program Office, is interested in getting lists of individuals who would be interested in attending. Please let me know if you or someone you know would be interested. I need a name, title and e-mail address and a short description of the policy, implementation work done related to LEP. Thanks.
