Multilingual agencies

Serve the community you have committed to serve.

If your agency has a Language Access Plan, an LEP policy, a state statute that applies, or a demographic need, AgencyCounter helps you meet that commitment — without bilingual staff becoming the workaround.

Who it's for

Anchored on your own obligations

Language access is framed around the agency's own adopted commitments — never as federally required or mandated by executive order.

Adopted Language Access Plan

Your agency has a formal Language Access Plan and needs public-facing tools that match it.

State statute applies

A state statute sets language-access expectations for your jurisdiction.

Spanish-preferring share

A meaningful share of your community prefers Spanish and is not served by English-only systems.

Federal-funding recipients

Your agency receives federal funding and carries language-access obligations of its own.

The problem

English-only systems make bilingual staff the workaround

Source systems are English-only. Bilingual staff translate records and walk Spanish-preferring residents through portals they cannot use on their own. Comparable products offer label translations only, if at all.

What AgencyCounter provides

Designed, not translated

AgencyCounter maintains the Spanish experience end to end, at no extra charge.

Spanish touchpoints

Search, parcel and permit views, map, filters and results are in Spanish — designed for Spanish-preferring users, not a label translation.

Communications in Spanish

Notifications, alerts and confirmations are delivered in Spanish, maintained by AgencyCounter at no extra charge.

Visual cues

Status indicators, icons and guidance are localised so a Spanish-preferring resident can read a record without help from bilingual staff.

Embeddable bar on Spanish pages

InstantSearch places live records search on your Spanish-language pages — no website redesign, no redirect to a separate portal.

Bring in your Language Access office early

Your Language Access coordinator, Office of Equity or Communications team is a Pillar 2 and Pillar 3 ally. Include them from the first conversation so the Spanish experience matches your adopted commitments.
