Closed
Captioning
28 million
Americans are deaf or hard of hearing; they represent about 10%
of all Americans. Each one of them has family members, friends,
co-workers, neighbors, etc., who watch films and videos with them
and thus often look for closed captioning.
Another
28 million Americans are foreign-born, many of whom speak languages
other than English. They may seek closed captioned programming
as one way to enhance their mastery of English.
More
than 3 million K-12 students are Limited English Proficient.
18 million Americans are under 5 years of age, many of whom will
learn to read faster if they are given an opportunity to watch
closed captioning on children's programs.

group of professionals that take extreme pride in their work and
they are all native speakers of the language being subtitled.
