Plain language is information that is easy to understand the first time it is read or heard. Plain language has always been a priority for People First of Canada and its members.

We have been promoting, developing and providing plain language services since the organization began. Plain language is an approach to communication that begins with the needs of the reader. It gives the reader the information they need in a form they can understand. Plain language is a process that looks at the whole message from the reader’s point of view.

PFC provides plain language translation services to a number of groups and organizations. People First members across the country are trained to test documents for plain language accessibility.
