Plain-English Summary

This bill would require gun violence prevention programs and resources to be made available in multiple languages so that non-English speakers can fully understand and access information about firearm safety, violence prevention services, and related support programs. The measure aims to ensure that language barriers don't prevent immigrant communities, non-English speakers, and other groups from benefiting from crime prevention and public safety initiatives. It would affect law enforcement agencies, community organizations, and other entities involved in delivering gun violence prevention services.
