Mayan Ministries: Organized through the Diocese of Palm Beach in Florida, Maya Ministries works to address the needs of Mayan immigrants to the area. These Mayan workers speak up to 25 different dialects of Mayan indigenous languages, but most can speak Spanish as well. The organization’s main services are literacy programs for families, adult education programs, and early childhood education programs for children who have English as a second language. They also offer a variety of social services referrals and translating specifically for Mayan immigrants. They have a Literacy Program funded by the Department of Education that was written in the Mayan indigenous language Canjobal.
