Dear Committee Members and Honourable Ministers,

May 2026 Board of Health Meeting - Language Support Utilization & the French Language Services Act Auxiliary Report

Windsor-Essex County (WEC) is home to an increasingly diverse population, enriched by residents who speak a wide range of languages and bring with them unique cultural backgrounds. While English and French remain the two official languages of the region, a significant proportion of individuals and families report using non-official languages in their daily lives. This diversity shapes the way community members access health information, programs, and services, underscoring the importance of clear and inclusive communication delivered by public health.
