Accessible On-Campus Emergency Communications: Relay 

For SLU campus community members who are deaf and/or hard of hearing, the Department of Public Safety (DPS) is broadening communication at SLU by offering information about Relay Service, which provides an accessible way for those at SLU who are deaf and/or hard of hearing to contact DPS in an emergency. This service also extends to other departments on campus.

To use , follow the steps below:

• Go to your phone's settings and select 鈥淎ccessibility鈥� to enable RTT/TTY.
• Dial 711 and select the RTT symbol on your cell phone to reach a communication assistant.
  • When you reach the operator, you will see that they are typing and you will use your microphone to speak.
• Provide the area code and phone number of the person you wish to call.
• The communication assistant will connect you to the phone number you wish to dial and will type the dialogue between parties.

If you prefer to type rather than speak, download the Relay app from the app store. From there, you can complete registration and identity verification to be assigned the 10-digit IP number.

If you have questions about this service, contact the Center for Accessibility and Disability Resources.
