This project enables direct access to emergency service for an underserved segment of Indiana's population, those that are deaf or speaking-impaired. Texty also allows 911 centers to convert voice calls to text sessions if the situation requires it. Indiana has the ability, via the IN911 system to Text-from-911 to the public. This service has improved communication capabilities between 9-1-1 centers and the general public.
