Student Access (formerly Disability) Services (SAS)

At HACC, it is our goal to support you throughout YOUR educational journey. We remain committed to providing reasonable accommodations to qualified students with disabilities to ensure that they have an equal opportunity to succeed and participate in their college and career goals. The College is in accordance with federal compliance of the Americans with Disabilities Act as Amended (ADAAA), Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and Title IX of the Education Amendment of 1972. Title IX provides protection for students who are pregnant, parenting and may need to take a medical leave of absence due to pregnancy, childbirth, miscarriage, abortion and or recovery.

No qualified person will be denied access to, participation in or the benefits of, any program or activity operated by the College because of disability or pregnancy or related conditions. Nor will individuals with a disability be subjected to discrimination while participating in College programs or activities due to disability. Whether you had an IEP in high school or not, you may be eligible for accommodations. We encourage students who feel they may benefit from accommodations to contact us to learn more and review our webpage at: www.hacc.edu/students/disabilityservices.

Each HACC campus center provides physical accommodations according to ADA guidelines. Electric doors are installed throughout the campuses providing access for students with mobility impairments. Parking spaces for individuals with disabilities are identified at all campuses. Additionally, each campus has identified secure and confidential lactation spaces for employees and students.

Student Access Coordinators are pointed to each HACC campus center to assist and facilitate students with inquiring and implementing accommodations. We invite you to connect with us, do refer to our contact us webpage:  https://www.hacc.edu/Students/DisabilityServices/Contact-Disability-Services.cfm
