The DC Language Immersion Project will zoom in on DC and walk you through the options to make dual language happen in your community with the help of the new advocacy toolkit for parents How to get a multilingual program started in your community.

Multilingualism can become the new norm, and it starts with our youth. A bilingual revolution has started, and it is for the common good.
