Language Matters Expands to Town of Milford, Indiana
On October 13th, 2026, the town council of Milford voted to commence a 6-month engagement with Language Matters to establish language-access systems for non-English speaking residents.
Through an LM Navigation Center, residents of Milford will be able to receive immediate Spanish and English interpretation during center hours. For city departments and community organizations, this provides relief from communication barriers that limit the efficiency of city operations.
The next step in the process is for town departments to receive navigation-center training from the Language Matters team. In addition, the town will benefit from several outreach services, such as the distribution of navigation-center cards and online-English course access for Spanish-speaking community members.
This development is possible thanks to a grant provided to the City of Warsaw from the Kosciusko County Community Foundation, which Warsaw leadership has utilized to expand Language Matters services and resources throughout nearby communities. In Warsaw, the LM Navigation Center continues to play a pivotal role in ensuring all residents have access to city services and improving unity and efficiency throughout the community.
