Becca Hume is the founder of TapSOS. If you’re able to speak or hear, you take for granted that you can pick up the phone and dial 911 here in the US, or 999 where she’s from. But for deaf people and the 650 million people with disabilities around the world, these critical moments are not easy or even possible. She made it her life’s mission to change the outdated emergency support systems, fundamentally improving the way we all get access to help.
