Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act (1973) and the Americans with Disabilities Act (1990) are federal mandates enacted to eliminate discrimination of persons with disabilities. These laws insure that all qualified persons have equal access to employment opportunities and education regardless of disabling conditions. The SDRC supports these laws by complying with their requirements. Every effort

is made to provide equality of educational access and opportunity to qualified students with disabilities by providing reasonable accommodations. A variety of accommodations and services for students with documented disabilities including learning disabilities, deaf/hard of hearing, blind/low vision, mobility limitations, ADHD, psychiatric and medical conditions are offered. Some of the accommodations and services provided by SDRC include:

Sign language interpreting
Note taking services
Testing accommodations
Campus orientation
Readers/scribes
JAWS Screen Reader
Livescribe Smartpen
