What are
Telecommunications
Relay Services?

Telecommunications Relay Services
provide people who are deaf or hard of
hearing with access to the public telephone
network; making their use of the system
“functionally equivalent” to the way a hearing
person uses the telephone network.

Relay Services Overview

1990 Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)

Modified Communications Act of 1934 to include a requirement that the
FCC ensure telecommunications relay services are available to people
who are deaf, hard of hearing, or speech impaired.

Telecommunications Relay Services (TRS) fund was established to
reimburse service providers for their costs to provide such a service;
fund is administered by the National Exchange Carriers Association
(NECA).

Historically, contracts were awarded on a state-by-state basis; recent
Internet based services remove the barriers to state-by-state
competition and enables providers to offer services anywhere.

Types of Relay Services

1. Traditional Telecommunications Relay Services (TRS) dial-up using a
TTY or other similar device

2. Captioned Telephone (Captel)

3. Internet Protocol Relay (IP Relay)

4. Speech-to-Speech Relay (STS)

5. Video Relay Service (VRS)
