We need language support

I think that the school should provide somebody to help. If something happened to me, will the school provide help? Like, for international students who may have a language problem, we may not be able to explain what happened. So, to let the security or to let the police know that it is serious, I think we need language support.

Recommendations

  • Offer interpretation services to victims/survivors and respondents who are more comfortable communicating in a language other than English and make it known to students that this service is available.
