Spanish Closed Captioning

Beginning February 8, 2022, Fairfax County Government Channel 16 will provide Spanish closed captioning for all public meetings and live events. Public meetings that will be captioned in Spanish include the Board of Supervisors meetings, Board of Supervisor Committee meetings, and meetings of the Planning Commission and Board of Zoning Appeals. Other live events such as the annual Mount Vernon Town Meeting, District Budget Town Halls, and Public Safety press conferences will be closed captioned in Spanish as well. Closed captioning for these meetings and live events will be available whether the public is watching on cable television or on the live stream. Channel 16 first introduced English closed captioning for programming in 1986 with the Board of Supervisors meetings. This service is now expanded for increased access and engagement with the County’s Spanish-speaking public. Web pages have been developed in English and Spanish to help promote the new service.
