We offer a comprehensive spectrum of services that provide assistance, both to students who require academic accommodations due to a disability, and to the faculty who work with them.

The CSD is ready to support our faculty in achieving the following:

• understanding the rights, necessary accommodations, and needs of individuals with disabilities; 
• providing all students with an optimal learning environment that promotes academic success;
• encouraging and empowering students to become self-advocates;
• promoting independence and personal responsibility in students.
