Service Description:

The Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission (DVRPC) is committed to upholding the principles and intentions of the 1964 Civil Rights Act and related nondiscrimination statutes in all of the Commission’s work, including publications, products, communications, public input, and decision-making processes. Language barriers may prohibit people who are Limited in English Proficiency (also known as LEP persons) from obtaining services, information, or participating in public planning processes. To better identify LEP populations and thoroughly evaluate the Commission’s efforts to provide meaningful access, DVRPC has produced this Limited-English Proficiency Plan. This is the data that was used to make the maps for the upcoming plan.

Public Use Microdata Area (PUMA), are geographies of at least 100,000 people that are nested within states or equivalent entities. States are able to delineate PUMAs within their borders, or use PUMA Criteria provided by the Census Bureau.
