DRC Mission 

The Disability Resource Center provides reasonable accommodations and services for students with disabilities and engages the campus community to create an educational experience that is accessible and equitable.

DRC Vision 

To create a more accessible and equitable community for the success of all students.
 

Who and how does the Disability Resource Center serve?

To receive disability-related services, students must have a documented or visible impairment as defined by the Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) 1990 and the ADA Amendments Act of 2008. The ADA regulations broadly define impairments to include a wide variety of disorders or conditions affecting any number of body systems, including: the neurological or musculoskeletal systems, special sense organs, respiratory, cardiovascular, reproductive, digestive, genitor-urinary, hemic, lymphatic, or endocrine systems, or the skins. Impairments also include mental or psychological disorders, including: emotional or mental illness and certain learning disorders. 

Rockhurst University will provide reasonable accommodations, adjustments, and/or auxiliary services to students who are substantially limited in one or more major life activites because of their disabilities. It is the responsibility of the student to inform the Disability Resource Center that an accommodation or change in accommodation is needed and to participate in the interactive process to formulate a reasonable accommodation plan. When a student with a disability requests accommodations based on a clear need, reasonable efforts to provide the accommodation, adjustment, and/or auxiliary service that is deemed effective will be made.
