Mission: Advancing Access For Everyone 

The Disability Resource Center (DRC) mission statement encompasses the work of all the DRC staff.

Access - Because we believe that access is at the core of our work.

Everyone - Because we believe it is an inclusive word that emphasizes the importance of each individual (students, employees, and those of us who work for the Disability Resource Center).

Vision: Partnering with the University of Minnesota to create access by design

We use the following words...

Partnering with the University....

Because access is everyone's shared everyday work.

Access...

Because access is at the core of our work.

By Design...
