October is Down Syndrome Awareness Month. Did you know? About 60 -80% of people with Down Syndrome experience some degree of hearing loss. And one study found that 97.8% of participants had speech differences such as Dysarthria, Apraxia of Speech, or a stutter.

STS North Carolina is proud to support individuals in our community who have Down Syndrome by promoting independence through no-cost access to accessible phone services.

Whether you're a caregiver, family member, or advocate—if you know someone who could benefit from customized communication support, we’re here to help. 💬 Send us a message to learn more about relay services tailored to unique needs. Our team is always ready to support you with compassion and care.

Today, in recognition of World Cerebral Palsy Day, we raise awareness about the challenges faced by individuals with cerebral palsy and celebrate their achievements. First, let’s celebrate the achievements of some incredible people living with cerebral palsy.

1. RJ Mitte – Actor best known for playing Walter White Jr. in Breaking Bad.
2. Justin Gallegos – 1st runner with cerebral palsy to sign an endorsement deal with Nike.
3. Abbey Curran – beauty pageant contestant and winner of Miss Iowa in 2008.

People who have cerebral palsy can encounter speech differences. STS North Carolina knows independence and communication is essential and that’s why we offer services such as Speech-to-Speech (STS) to make communicating by phone more accessible. Learn more about STS and all our services that support those with speech differences on our website: https://nc-sts.com/
Let’s work together to create a more inclusive world! 💚

October is National Disability Employment Awareness Month (NDEAM)! This month, we celebrate the invaluable contributions of people with disabilities to our workforce by ensuring they feel prioritized and included in the workplace. Creating an inclusive work environment is essential for fostering diversity and innovation. One effective way to enhance accessibility is by incorporating Relay Conference Captioning (RCC) into all video meetings, webinars, and conference calls. RCC provides real-time captions with a full suite of accessibility options making it easier for employees who are Deaf, Hard of Hearing, DeafBlind, and/or have speech differences to participate fully.

Let’s commit to making our workplaces more inclusive! -NC Learn more about RCC and how it can transform your meetings: relaync.com/rcc
