Despite the high concentration of Plain identifying people in Lancaster County, and in Pennsylvania at large, the PA Judicial System's Interpreter Program has found significant difficulty in finding interpreters for Pennsylvania Dutch, the language first learned in many Plain Communities. Even when interpreters were found, they were usually not well versed in the cultural practices and religious beliefs of the members of Plain Communities.
