AccesSOS is a tech-based nonprofit organization that operates in the emergency services sector. The company's primary mission is to make emergency help accessible to everyone, with a particular focus on individuals who are unable to hear or speak. The company operates in several parts of New Mexico, including Santa Fe, Albuquerque, and Bernalillo County.
AccesSOS's business model revolves around providing a platform that enables direct access to emergency help for the deaf community. This is achieved through the use of innovative technology that allows for text-to-911 communication. This service is critical for those who cannot make traditional voice calls to 911 due to hearing or speech impairments. Users simply enter a few details about their emergency, and the platform facilitates communication with emergency services.
The company generates revenue through donations and grants, given its status as a nonprofit organization. It also indirectly impacts lives through advocacy work and awareness campaigns, which aim to foster greater accessibility and inclusivity in emergency services. This advocacy work has indirectly impacted over 686,000 lives, further highlighting the company's social impact.
AccesSOS's work has been recognized for its direct impact on the lives of more than 5,000 individuals by providing vital access to emergency communications. The company is led by CEO and founder Gabriella Wong, who is committed to the vision of communication access for all.
