Welcome!

Disability Resources and Services (DRS) is the Student Services department providing comprehensive services for students with disabilities at Mesa Community College.

With ongoing support of MCC's faculty and administration, DRS assists students to fully participate in campus life by providing advisement, and academic adjustments and accommodations in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.

Our office currently serves more than 750 students. Although DRS is located at the Southern and Dobson campus, services for students with disabilities are available at all campuses. Mesa Community College, through the Disability Resources and Services, supports universal design in its buildings and campuses and accessible programs and services for all students.
