Having problems hearing on the phone?  DC Relay and Captioned Telephones allow you to "see what they say".  This is a program of the Public Service Commission of the District of Columbia. DC Relay provides a 24-hour communication service that connects people who are deaf, hard of hearing, deaf-blind or have difficulty speaking that may use specialized telephone equipment to people who use standard telephones. There is no cost to use DC Relay, although equipment and long-distance charges may apply.

Hamilton Relay also offers DC Captioned Telecommunications Relay Service (DC CapTel) to District residents who use CapTel phones. CapTel phones allow users to receive word-for-word captions of their telephone conversations. The captions are displayed on their phones built-in screens so users can read the words while listening to the voice of the other party.  Captioned telephone calls can also be made on internet-connected computers, smartphones or tablets.

Please join us to learn about all of the options available.  You can register at https://register.gotowebinar.com/register/4934002760524799756. You will need to enter your name, email and indicate whether if you require accommodations in the form of ASL interpretation, CART or not, in order to participate in the webinar.
