残疾及无障碍服务
As a dynamic and collaborative learning community, 皇冠app values a multitude of perspectives — fostering a sense of community while preparing students for success in the classroom and beyond. At 皇冠app’s Office of 残疾及无障碍服务, we’re leading the charge to redefine accessibility — empowering self-advocacy and championing disability pride.
我想尝试一些不一样的东西。 我是本地人，所以听说了皇冠app的事。 我觉得皇冠app适合所有人。 It gives you opportunities you’ve always wanted to find and can help you branch out right from where you’re standing. The Office of 残疾及无障碍服务 has helped me find the best ways to organize myself and understand my classwork by providing information in a more accessible way — going beyond how the work is presented in class.

Two of my favorite things about 皇冠app are how supportive and accommodating they’ve been during my health journey. The Office of 残疾及无障碍服务 is amazing and will work with you to find solutions so that you, too, can take your classes on campus — even if you’re in a wheelchair like me! 作为一名坐在轮椅上的未来护士，我的目标是激励人们。 I want someone to look at me and say, ‘Because of you I didn’t give up.’
