Concord to use Wordly software for real-time language translation at City Council meetings

The city of Concord is piloting new software called Wordly to make City Council meetings more accessible to the non-English speaking community.  

Wordly will provide real-time translations, allowing meeting attendees to use their smartphones to listen to meetings with headphones or earbuds. People can also opt to read a transcript of the meeting in real time, available in more than 40 languages.
