VOICE CARRY-OVER

Voice Carry-Over (VCO) allows hard-of-hearing users to speak directly to a hearing person. When the hearing person speaks to them, the Relay Operator will serve as the "ears" and type everything voiced by the hearing person so the VCO user can read it on a TTY or text display.
TELEBRAILLE FOR DEAF-BLIND USERS
711 or 800-735-2900
Deaf-blind users often use special TTYs equipped with TeleBraille. Specially trained relay operators are familiar with deaf-blind users and trained to provide effective solutions to their calling needs.
