Disability Resources

Print this Page

The Mission of Disability Resources is to ensure qualified persons with disabilities equal access and reasonable accommodations in all Yavapai College's academic programs and activities.

Disability Resources provides services to students who qualify under the Americans with Disabilities Act, ADA Amendment Act 2008, and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.

Students must self-identify and register with the Disability Resources office and provide required documentation verifying the nature and extent of their disability. The Disability Resources office is responsible for evaluating documentation and determining accommodation eligibility. All situations shall be considered on an individual, case-by-case basis.

Students requesting reasonable accommodations must do so by registering with Disability Resources in a timely manner, usually four to six weeks prior to the start of the semester. Without four to six weeks' notice, we cannot assure the timely availability of accommodations. The process of determining reasonable accommodations is collaborative among the student, Disability Resources staff and other college staff and faculty when necessary.

Assistance is available at all Yavapai College locations. Please visit our website at www.yc.edu/disabilityresources or call us at 928.776.2085 for more information.
