Our Mission

National Captioning Institute is a nonprofit corporation whose primary purposes are to deliver effective captioning services and encourage, develop and fund the continuing development of captioning, subtitling and other media access services for the benefit of people who require additional access to auditory and visual information. As its resources permit and opportunities unfold with the development of new technology, NCI will support services to people who are deaf or hard of hearing and others who, for whatever reason, wherever situated and irrespective of their economic conditions, are limited in their ability to participate fully in the world of auditory or visual communications.

About Us

The National Captioning Institute pioneered live closed captioning for television in the 1980s and now captions thousands of hours of programming and events each year.  With a highly skilled captioning staff and state-of-the-art facilities, NCI supplies world-class captioning (CC), subtitling and translation, and Audio Description (AD) services for TV broadcasting, Internet, Video On Demand (VOD), educational and government institutions, among others.
