Wyoming Relay

This week, we recognize Helen Keller, a trailblazer whose life continues to inspire people around the world.

Born in 1880, Helen lost her sight and hearing as a young child—but with the help of her teacher, Anne Sullivan, she learned to communicate through sign language and Braille. She went on to become the first DeafBlind person to earn a Bachelor’s degree. She was a published author and a lifelong advocate for accessibility and inclusion. Helen traveled the world promoting opportunities for people who are Blind and DeafBlind, helping pave the way for the services and supports available today.

Wyoming Relay is proud to continue that mission—connecting people who are DeafBlind to the world around them through accessible communication services like TeleBraille, IP Relay and Relay Conference Captioning (RCC).

Together, these tools help ensure independence, connection, and full participation in everyday life. During DeafBlind Awareness Week, we honor Helen Keller’s legacy by continuing to build a more accessible, connected future for all. 🤟

“Why Use STS?”

STS connects people with speech disabilities to a specially trained communications assistant. The communications assistant revoices the STS user’s words, when needed for clarity.

STS allows you to use your own voice during calls, supporting independence and personal expression.

STS is available 24 hours a day so you can reach businesses, healthcare providers, friends, and family at any time.

No special equipment is needed. All you need is a phone!

Let’s be real—sometimes, you don’t want anyone overseeing or eavesdropping on your doctor’s calls. I mean, do you really want your mother-in-law to find out there’s a new family member on the way before you’re ready to share the news?

That’s where confidentiality with IP Relay comes in! While video relay services are great, they can sometimes turn your private conversation into a family affair. Instead, why not try IP Relay?

With IP Relay, you can text your doctor through the app, and a communications assistant will voice your written words on the call. You can then read everything the other party says, right in the app.

So, keep it confidential and call your doctor with confidence!
