2015 Achievement Highlights
Thanks to our growing community of supporting friends, Nile Sisters Development Initiative grew in important ways that made 2015 one of the best in our fourteen-year history of serving refugee and immigrant populations. Following are the highlights of our achievements this year.
New Website Translation Tool
Niles Sisters Development Initiative now offers website visitors Google™ Translate, a free tool to translate text on every page in the website into other languages. Visitors may access the new translation tool in the top right corner of every web page.
Installation of this new website addition clearly demonstrates Nile Sisters’ commitment to comply with the US Department of Health and Human Services Office of Minority Health (OMH) National Standards for Culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Services in Health Care, commonly referred to the National CLAS Standards. These 15 standards are a strategy to help eliminate well-documented health inequities in the United States by tailoring services to the cultural and language preferences of diverse populations.
