Office of the City Administrator June 2026 Newsletter
The City Administrator’s Office is dedicated to improving how San Francisco government serves the public. By leading efforts to strengthen service delivery across departments, we’re working together to make government more effective, responsive, and accountable. In this month’s newsletter, we are excited to share highlights of our latest work, along with upcoming events happening this month.
City services expanding in Vietnamese
Vietnamese will soon become one of San Francisco’s required languages under the Language Access Ordinance, joining Chinese, Spanish, and Filipino.
Starting July 1, City departments will begin expanding language services in Vietnamese. Services will expand over the course of a year, with departments expected to follow the new rules by July 2027.
San Francisco’s Language Access Ordinance provides the right to get free help in your preferred language when using certain City services, like:
- Filling out City forms
- Notices about City benefits or services
- Important public service announcements
- City complaint forms
- Public meetings (if you ask at least 48 hours in advance)
- Getting help or information from City staff
