Video Relay Service

Video Relay Service (VRS) is a communication tool that enables people who are deaf or hard of hearing to converse with hearing individuals through video technology. Using a computer or smartphone with a camera, they sign in sign language to a trained interpreter who then verbally relays the message to the hearing person, and vice versa. This service provides real-time, visual communication, allowing smoother and more natural conversations without needing a spoken language. VRS enhances accessibility, independence, and connectivity for those who rely on sign language.
