Welcome to the UWRF Disability Services web site.The Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA)Many students live with medical, physical, or brain situation that significantly challenge the ability to pursue a college education. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is a civil rights law that can serve those circumstances. It broadly defines a disability as such an issue that substantially limits a person in a major area of life. ADA also creates a way these students can seek non-traditional ways to participate in the learning, working, and living opportunities at UWRF. The non-traditional methods are often called adjustments or accommodations. These things are not really for the purpose of ensuring successful outcomes; there for creating equal opportunity and access. The adjustments and accommodations that individual students are allowed must serve to offset how the issue prevents them from having adequate opportunity or access. |
