To the student
Accessibility Services believes that every student has the capability to be successful at DCC! An understanding of your own unique learning needs and learning style is critical to your success in the classroom. I can assist you in identifying these learning strengths and preferences. Specific accommodations are unique to every student and every course. I am dedicated and committed to assisting you in your educational and career goals while at DCC. Ultimately, my hope is that I can support you in advocating for yourself as a student at DCC and in your chosen career field.
