The mission of California Communications Access Foundation (CCAF) is to serve as an educator, convener and resource that works collaboratively to ensure communications access for Californians with disabilities.
The primary focus of California Communications Access Foundation (CCAF) is to aid individuals with functional limitations of hearing, vision, speech, mobility, manipulation, and/or cognition by promoting access to society through telecommunications and other means.
Through a contract with the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC), CCAF provided specialized telecommunications equipment to 10,000 deaf and disabled consumers in their homes, in seven full-time and two part-time Service Centers throughout California, and at distribution events. CCAF also provided equipment to 11,000 consumers through oversight of a centralized call center, which received 92,000 calls annually. Through its contract with the CPUC, CCAF also managed contracts with the California Relay Services vendors, who relayed 1,372,000 calls to and from deaf, hard of hearing, and speech disabled users. In total, CCAF supports a customer base of over 718,000 Californians with specialized telecommunications equipment.
CCAF continued its program of awarding grants to 501(c)(3) non-profit organizations in California for furthering CCAF's mission, which is to improve access to communication for people with disabilities through providing technology and services. CCAF's Board of Directors approves all grant awards. The funded organizations set goals at the beginning of their projects for their respective programs. CCAF intends to continue its grant program, provide resources, and facilitate networking throughout the state to serve the communication needs of people with disabilities. In this fiscal year, CCAF awarded $974,532 to 17 non-profit organizations and incurred other miscellaneous expenses.
