Disability Programs and Resource Center

Resource

The Disability Programs and Resource Center (DPRC) provides the University with resources, education and direct services to ensure access, equity and full participation in all aspects of campus life.

Our Commitment to Access and Inclusion 

The Disability Programs and Resource Center (DPRC) collaborates with students, faculty, staff and campus partners to foster an inclusive and accessible university experience. We support students with disabilities by working collaboratively with departments across the University to address barriers, coordinate resources and promote equitable access to campus programs, services and opportunities. 

Through partnerships with Academic Technology (AT), academic departments, Student Affairs, Facilities, Information Technology Services (ITS), Transportation, Housing and other campus offices, the DPRC helps advance both individual accommodations and broader accessibility initiatives. These collaborative efforts support accessible learning environments, digital accessibility, physical access and inclusive campus experiences. 

By providing resources, education, consultation and supports, the DPRC works alongside the University community to promote accessibility, equity and inclusion. Together, these cross-departmental partnerships help create systemic supports that ensure students with disabilities have meaningful access to all aspects of campus life and the opportunity to thrive academically, professionally and personally.

The following videos highlight the student accommodation process and engage in ideas of how to implement Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles at San Francisco State. While accommodations and UDL strategies assist individuals with disabilities, they also support the success of all students. This video series is a collaboration between Academic Technology, the Longmore Institute on Disability and the DPRC, in support of the Accessible Technology Initiative.
