The original video – https://livestream.com/stateofdelaware/text-to-911/videos/184455734, did not have closed captioning. DAD recently reached out to someone that knew how to make this possible and DAD was given permission to share the captioned version (shown above). Delaware State will be adding the closed captioning eventually as both files came from them.
Thanks to Delaware Office of Emergency Preparedness.
Online videos are the best way to provide full communication in ASL for many deaf organizations… BUT: are your videos clear and accessible? Roberto will explain why providing access information is important and Lizzie will do a live demo showing you how to add a closed caption file to your online videos! This webinar will leave you with tools, tips, and a better understanding of why your online videos should have captions. This free webinar is a joint collaboration with the Colorado Commission for the Deaf, Hard of Hearing, and DeafBlind.
Note: this will not be streamed to Facebook, you will need to register for the webinar to receive the zoom link.

Are you a deaf interpreter who can provide ASL translation, either live or recorded? Whether it’s for an emergency press briefing or a work meeting, we know people are looking for YOU to provide access. The NAD and National Deaf Interpreters (NDI) partnered together to address this critical gap of ensuring the public can easily access a directory with this information.
