Precision's Mission
Precision Captioning's mission is to increase the awareness of captioning in the general public and to educate a segment of the television industry that is unaware of the seervice and that is also unaware of the FCC mandate that requires 100% of all new television progrogramming be captioned by January 1, 2006. The benefits of captioning now extend far beyond assisting the deaf and hard of hearing communities. It continues to expand and reach millions of new viewers that can utilize captioning as a viable educational tool for improving literacy.
