Rounding off our #HispanicHeritageMonth celebration is Vania Vitale, SMC, one of our superb Operations supervisors. Vania spoke to us of her pride in her grandfathers, who immigrated to the U.S. from Mexico in the 1950s, and her gratitude for the work ethic that they instilled into her parents and herself in turn. Here’s her heartfelt message about her Hispanic heritage: “I love my culture, my family, and our dedication to hard work. I love our holiday traditions: from the tamale-making assembly line to getting together every Sunday for a family BBQ, to the birthdays, weddings, and quinceañeras that seemed to happen almost every weekend growing up.” Thank you so much to Vania for sharing her story, to our other wonderful staff members who shared theirs, and to all of you who joined us in this celebration of Hispanic and Latinx heritage and culture! #VivalaGenteQueLucha #culture #family

We asked Marisol Fitzwater to share her greatest accomplishment as an #interpreter. Hers is truly altruistic: “I can say that one of the biggest accomplishments is to be able to be a professional and pursue a career where my 9 to 5 is really helping people. And I feel fulfilled by that.” What’s yours? #interpretation #helpingothers #interpreter

As a #languageserviceprovider, we never forget why we do what we do, especially when it comes to #healthequity. Every year, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) conduct their annual Accuracy & Accessibility Study. The purpose of this test is to assist limited English proficient (LEP) beneficiaries with real health coverage concerns. Soon (very soon), CLI will begin prepping for CMS call center monitoring, and one of the steps we take to ensure our interpreters are ready is to monitor success rates and average hold times for CMS-tested languages. We know firsthand how helpful our interpreters’ knowledge and skill really are ❤️ #medicareadvantage #starratings

Parental involvement boosts children’s academic success and social adjustment. However, language barriers often prevent parents with a non-English language preference (NELP) from advocating effectively for their children and accessing crucial information about programs. Many schools do not provide adequate language services, putting families with NELP at a disadvantage. To improve access, we must: - Translate essential documents for NELP families - Work with professional interpreters for all parent communications - Implement language access plans and train staff accordingly - Advocate for better funding for language access programs Let’s work together to create an inclusive educational environment where every child can thrive! 💪📚 #languageaccess #equityineducation #inclusiveeducation

It’s the third week of #HispanicHeritageMonth, and today, Marisol Fitzwater, our incredible Quality Assurance Department manager, is shedding light on why this observance so important: “It is a great time to highlight the achievements of Latinx people and to send a message that we belong in spaces and places that we were kept from historically, due to discriminatory practices.” Thank you, Marisol 💛 Be on the lookout next week for the final installment of our month-long celebration! #VivalaGenteQueLucha #culture
