Welcome to the home page for ACCESS Services. My name is Kesia Vazquez and I am your Director. I look forward to meeting with many of you and assist you in any way I can. Our department works to make all elements of the college accessible to students with disabilities. We also work to help the college better understand what the needs of students with disabilities are and how they can best be met.

Students with documented disabilities who qualify can receive such services as tutoring, note-taking, interpreting, technology training and other assistance they might need. Our job is to make college accessible to all students which involves removing the barriers that may exist to full participation in the programs and activities at the college. We are proud of the accomplishments of our students who have won scholarships and who have formed an organization consisting primarily of students with disabilities called Abilities Unlimited. They have worked to organize activities for students with disabilities and have also helped the college identify accessibility problems and work to correct them.

I hope you will make use of the information posted on this website. Please contact us if you have any questions.

I look forward to working with you throughout your academic journey!

Sincerely,
Kesia Vazquez
Director of ACCESS Services.
