Introduction
Welcome to the Disability Resource Center homepage. The fundamental goal of this website is to increase awareness of the Rights, Responsibilities, and Resources available at the University of North Florida for students with disabilities. The Disability Resource Center (DRC) acts as a liaison between students with disabilities and the academic community. In compliance with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990, the DRC provides academic support services necessary for the student’s academic pursuits. The DRC provides information on issues of accessibility, reasonable accommodations, and auxiliary learning aids. These services give students with disabilities equal access to academic programs. The DRC office also provides necessary accommodations during special campus events and meetings.
Students Helping Students Program: Students who would like to volunteer to help students who are temporarily in wheelchairs are asked to come to the Disablity Resource Center Office to fill out a volunteer form and receive training in wheelchair usage.
