At Vedic Seva Charitable Trust (VSCT), we are committed to ensuring that individuals with limited English proficiency (LEP) have meaningful access to our services, programs, and activities. We recognize that certain individuals may not speak English as their primary language or may have limited ability to read, write, speak, or understand English. VSCT strives to provide equal opportunities for all people to participate in our programs, irrespective of their language proficiency.
VSCT will consider the following factors to determine when to provide language assistance to individuals with LEP:
When reasonably required and practicable, VSCT will provide language assistance services such as translation or interpretation without cost to the person being served.
To identify the language needs of an LEP individual, VSCT staff will use available resources such as language identification cards or other tools to determine the preferred language of communication. In addition, we will maintain records of individual interactions, including the languages used in communication, to help better serve LEP individuals in the future.
We recognize that individuals with disabilities may require specific accommodations to participate in certain programs and activities. We encourage individuals with disabilities to contact us to discuss reasonable accommodations that may be needed to ensure full participation.
If an individual with LEP requires assistance, VSCT will provide one or more of the following services, depending on the nature of the program and the resources available:
To request language assistance for any of VSCT’s programs, activities, or services, LEP individuals should submit a request to the appropriate VSCT office at least 10 business days before the program or activity. We will review the request and determine how best to provide the needed services, based on our resources and the factors outlined in the Reasonableness Analysis.
