TELECOMMUNICATIONS RELAY SERVICE (TRS) COMMUNICATIONS
Individuals who are deaf and hard of hearing, and individuals with a speech disability, may be able to avail themselves of both for
peertopeer and thirdparty telecommunications relay service (TRS) communications. Telecommunications Relay Service is a
telephone service that allows persons with hearing or speech disabilities to place and receive telephone calls. TRS is available in
all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the U.S. territories for local and/or long distance calls. TRS providers
generally telephone companies are compensated for the costs of providing TRS from either a state or a federal fund. There is no
cost to the TRS user.
What forms of TRS are available? There are several forms of TRS, depending on the particular needs of the user and the equipment
available: TRS includes: Text to Voice TIYBased TRS; SpeechtoSpeech Relay Service; Shared NonEnglish Language Relay
Service; Captioned Telephone Relay Service; Internet Protocol Relay Service; and Video Relay Service. Please visit this site for detail
descriptions, https://www.fcc.gov/consumers/guides/telecommunicationsrelayservicetrs.
Don't hang up! Some people hang up on TRS calls because they think the caller is a telemarketer. If you hear, "Hello, this is the relay
service…" when you pick up the phone, please don't hang up! You are about to talk, through a TRS provider, to a person who is deaf,
hardofhearing, or has a speech disability.

FCC's Disability Rights Office website.
