265 - InnoCaption Connect: Bridging the Communication Gap for Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing Inmates

Access to communication is a fundamental right, yet for many individuals who are Deaf or hard of hearing in the prison system, it remains a significant challenge. In this discussion, Paul Lee, COO of InnoCaption, joins Shari Eberts to discuss InnoCaption Connect, a program designed to bring real-time captioned calls to incarcerated individuals.With an estimated 10% of the prison population experiencing hearing loss, traditional communication methods like TTYs or outdated landline caption phones have often left them isolated. InnoCaption is working to change that by integrating their captioning technology with secure prison telecommunications systems, ensuring that deaf and hard-of-hearing individuals can stay connected with family, access legal services, and prepare for reintegration into society.For more information on InnoCaption:
