Fantastic news for the 68.8 million Americans that speak a language other than English at home. The important work continues 🙌🏽
NOAA CommunicationsUpdate: The National Weather Service’s contract to produce common language translations for nws.noaa.gov products has been reinstated. Translation capabilities are expected to be operational on or before the end of the day on Monday, April 28. www.weather.gov noaa.gov
I want to take a moment to thank every friend, mentor, and colleague that made this moment possible. Everyone deserves a chance to receive lifesaving information. In this new role, I look forward to bringing this to even greater heights. Prof. Trujillo-Falcón is truly a dream come true. ❤️
CliMAS IllinoisWe’re excited to share that Dr. Joseph Trujillo-Falcón will join our regular faculty as an Assistant Professor in Fall 2025! He’ll continue his work on effective risk communication in weather and climate.
68,845,865. That's how many individuals in the United States speak a language other than English at home. Everyone deserves a chance to stay safe during disasters, and I will never stop advocating for that. Thinking of all the communities that are going to be affected by this change.

Honored to be featured in @npr.org and uplift the voices of undocumented immigrants. We don't often think about this as risk communicators, but evacuation orders may be leveraged to deport the undocumented in the aftermath of weather and climate disasters. We must find solutions moving forward.
NPRMany undocumented people are not eligible for federal financial disaster aid and several remain fearful even when help is offered.
With #tsunami warnings issued for parts of #California and #Oregon, it is important the multilingual public receives lifesaving info. Our collaborators at the NWS Automated Translation program have developed graphics in English, Spanish, Chinese, & Vietnamese. Visit weather.gov/translate for more.
