Fast Facts

  1. According to the World Federation of the Deaf, there are approximately 72 million deaf people worldwide. Collectively, they use more than 300 different sign languages.
  2. Sign languages are not merely spoken or written languages conveyed through hand signals; they have unique structural elements.
  3. For many deaf individuals, sign language is their primary means of communication, their first language.
  4. Lower English proficiency (LEP) can make essential content in written form inaccessible to them.
  5. Coupled with a chronic shortage of interpreters, some deaf individuals often find themselves having to rely on friends and family for help.

Through our service, organizations can now easily break down these barriers, providing equal access to content, and reducing the risk of penalties associated with non-compliance. The costs of not addressing this issue are not just financial but social as well.
