Services for Students with Diversabilities

East Los Angeles College provides support services for students with mobility limitations, learning disabilities, hearing or visual impairments, and other disabilities. The Diversabilities Support Program and Services provides specialized services that are available to help students plan an East Los Angeles College experience to meet their individual needs. They assist students in making personal, academic, and vocational choices, and show how best to utilize campus facilities. Prior to receiving this assistance, documentation verifying a student’s disability from a qualified professional source must be submitted to DSPS whose disability specialists will determine the nature of accommodations in instruction and testing that will be required by the student.
