🗣️Shoutout to our OJP teammate, Michael J. Mulé, for his outstanding work ensuring language access for civil rights! He is one of the many at OJP who make our agency an #EmployerOfChoice.
Happy Tica Tuesday! Today’s feature is Michael J. Mulé. Michael is Deputy Director of the Office for Civil Rights (OCR) at the U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Justice Programs (OJP). OCR ensures that recipients of federal financial assistance comply with federal civil rights and nondiscrimination laws including Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Title VI) and the Safe Streets Act of 1968. Before OCR, Mr. Mulé was a senior attorney in the Civil Rights Division at DOJ for thirteen years where he led the Title VI state courts language access team and administered the website www.LEP.gov. Mr. Mulé is recognized as a subject matter expert on language access. He has presented over 75 civil rights trainings for federal and state agencies, attorneys, and judges, and has resolved many Title VI and language access matters. His publications address a range of topics from language access 101 to creating non-English digital content. From 2005 until 2010, he focused on improving access for low-income clients who were limited English proficient (LEP), Deaf, or hard of hearing as a civil rights attorney at the Empire Justice Center in Rochester, New York. Check out this May 2023 podcast hosted by Carol Velandia, MBA, CHI, PMP, LMSW, in which Michael speaks passionately about how to ignite change and ensure language access for all!
