WGBH Access Services

 

WGBH has been pioneering and delivering accessible media to people with disabilities for more than 30 years.

36 million Americans who are deaf, hard of hearing, blind, or visually impaired rely on media access services provided by WGBH.

We invented captioning and video descriptions for television, and today we apply those services to movies, the Web, museums, theme parks, and more. Our Carl & Ruth Shapiro Family National Center for Accessible Media (NCAM) is working on new media access breakthroughs that build on WGBH’s history.
