Unprotected and Unheard: Nassau County Police Department Fails Immigrant Communities: After years of local and statewide language access and police reform efforts, the NYIC and LILAC partnered to conduct this testing project to evaluate the NCPD's current language access practices. Our findings indicate a significant failure rate in the NCPD's response to Spanish speakers who called the eight precincts and headquarters a total of 94 times. Our recent testing had a failure rate of 46.8% indicating a pattern of willful negligence and dereliction of duty.
