The Social Security Website will soon become friendlier for Spanish speakers.

Social Security's site is now offering all of their vast information in Spanish.  Benefits such as Medicare and other services will now have their information available in Spanish as well.  Niki Alvarado, of Social Security, says that this new feature will allow much better cohesion between Spanish Speakers and Social Security Representatives.

With the Spanish population constantly growing, Alvarado says that Social Security has been trying to fulfill the needs of Spanish-speaking citizens approaching retirement age. She says that its natural to want to take care of personal business with your primary language.

Social Security has also welcomed Don Francisco as a spokesperson for the Spanish speaking community nearing retirement.  Francisco is a widely known television host within the Spanish community. He helps to encourage people to get online and acquire as much information as they can.
