The FBI Denver Division has launched a new Spanish-language Twitter account to “enhance communication and outreach with Spanish-speaking communities” in Colorado and Wyoming.
The FBI shares information about federal criminal activity, crime prevention, employment opportunities and community outreach efforts through Twitter, and the new account, @miFBIDenver, will highlight this information to help Spanish-speaking communities access FBI resources.
“Social media is a powerful communication tool that enables us to deliver critical information and resources to the diverse population we serve,” said Acting Special Agent in Charge Leonard Carollo in a news release. “This account will help us educate the Spanish-speaking community about the FBI’s role in fighting crime and how to avoid becoming a victim of crime.”
Carollo said when information is provided in people’s native language, people feel more comfortable and receptive.
FBI Denver hopes to grow a Twitter following among Spanish-speaking constituents to facilitate communication and foster an environment of respect and trust, the release stated.
