The 2012 Know Your Rights campaign aims to educate limited and non-English proficient DC residents about interpretation services that must be made available to them at government agencies if they speak Amharic, Chinese, French, Korean, Spanish or Vietnamese. The seven public service announcements released with the Know Your Rights campaign acknowledge the difficulty of being limited or non-English proficient, but that "I Speak" cards provided by the DC Office of Human Rights can make access to government services easier.

Watch and share the public service announcements to help spread the word about translation services provided at DC government agencies. "I Speak" cards are available for download at ohr.dc.gov/ispeakcards. Learn more about OHR's Language Access Program.
