"Spanish is the second most widely spoken language in the United States," said Eric Eckl, founder and owner of Water Words That Work LLC. "We can now help our clients get their message out in areas where many residents speak Spanish as their primary language."
"Pollution problems are often suffered more acutely in minority and immigrant communities," MacColman said. "I'm looking forward to putting my skills to use for Water Words' clients to inform Spanish-speaking individuals about environmental problems and help them become part of the solution."
Almost 35 million Americans -- about 11% of the population -- speak Spanish at home, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. Spanish speaking households are particularly prevalent in Florida and states sharing a border with Mexico. But nearly every metropolitan area has one or more areas with predominantly Hispanic populations.
Leslie MacColman, who is based in Memphis, TN, assists with translating materials from Spanish to English and English to Spanish. She holds a double B.A. in Anthropology and Spanish language and a Graduate Certificate in Non-Profit Management, is professionally credentialed as bilingual, and has nearly 10 years of translation experience. Leslie is also familiar with Latin American culture, having lived in several Central and South American countries. In the past, she has worked with numerous environmental organizations such as the Environment and Natural Resources Foundation (FARN) and The Nature Conservancy (TNC).
