Office of Language Access

The Office of Language Access (OLA) supports NYC Public Schools in their efforts to connect with families who prefer to communicate in a language other than English.

OLA offers document translation, and in-person, virtual and over-the-phone interpretation. OLA also assists schools in developing and maintaining a comprehensive approach for engaging and communicating with all families. 

Families may visit schools.nyc.gov/hello for additional language access resources.

NYC Public Schools staff can visit OLA's Infohub (log-in required) for available language supports and services.
