• Understand the needs of LEP persons seeking housing counseling services
• Ensure meaningful access to housing counseling programs and activities by persons with LEP as described in the HCA’s work plan
• Conduct outreach, educate, and affirmatively market the availability of housing counseling and housing-related services to LEP communities
