Chandler Municipal Court has been awarded the prestigious Strategic Agenda Award for its groundbreaking Instant Language Assistant program.

This innovative approach not only enhances the overall experience for those involved in the judicial process but also demonstrates the court's commitment to inclusivity and fair access to legal resources.
Officials from the court expressed pride in this recognition, highlighting the importance of bridging communication gaps within the community. By prioritizing technology that serves diverse populations, Chandler Municipal Court sets a commendable example for other judicial systems seeking to adapt to the needs of their constituents.
