Nevada’s most populous county is going bilingual on social media, with Clark County officials saying they hope new social media pages unveiled Friday will bridge the communication gap with Spanish-speaking residents.

“With this move, we hope to ensure that all of our residents are better equipped with the latest information about our services and programs — and to deepen engagement with our community,” County Commission Chairman Jim Gibson said in a statement.

County officials also hope the Spanish-language pages will help them to better assess the needs of residents for everything from child welfare to services for older people.
