Pinterest This program helps you get equipment to communicate over the phone if you are deaf, hard of hearing, have trouble speaking or are deaf-blind. The program loans you equipment and allows you to keep it if it works for you. You can get equipment such as:
- A teletypewriter
- A loud ringer
- A phone with a screen to read your conversation
- Flashing lights for incoming calls
A teletypewriter is a machine you connect to your phone that lets you type a message to an operator. The operator then reads it to the person you are calling.
How do I apply?
To find out how to apply, please contact the program.
