ADA Coordinator Office
The ADA Coordinator Office educates the campus community about disability rights and resources; collaborates with students, faculty, and staff to remove access barriers; and supports thoughtful and timely resolution of reasonable accommodation concerns.
The ADA Coordinator is responsible for coordinating the university’s accessibility and compliance efforts in accordance with the ADA and other applicable laws, in collaboration with campus partners. The ADA Coordinator provides oversight of disability/accessibility-related services provided by university departments and offices, and addresses reports of noncompliance, discrimination on the basis of disability, and barriers to access in physical facilities and in digital/online contexts.
The ADA Coordinator provides resources and supports for faculty, staff, students, and visitors.
