Language access and outreach challenges: Cities like Alhambra emphasized the importance of safe, accessible venues (e.g., libraries) where residents can learn about programs in their language, but they lack resources to scale this outreach. Participants noted that government jargon and technical language alienate residents, making programs feel inaccessible or untrustworthy. In-person events with interpretation and culturally tailored engagement are critical, but capacity and funding shortfalls limit consistency.
