Students with Disabilities   Student Disabilities Services We welcome students with disabilities and seek to provide opportunities for a positive college experience.  Notification of a disability, with supporting documentation should be received prior to registration in order to determine appropriate and reasonable services, accommodations and implementation.  Individual services are consistent with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act and are provided to each eligible student.  Students with disabilities are advised to contact Maki McHenry, Counselor and Accommodations Coordinator, at mmchenry@acc.commnet.edu or (860) 253-3021.   Persons with Disabilities The Board of Trustees of Community-Technical Colleges and all of the colleges under its jurisdiction are committed to the goal of achieving equal educational opportunity and full participation for people with disabilities in the community colleges.  To that end, this statement of policy is put forth to reaffirm our commitments to ensure that no qualified person be excluded from participation in, denied the benefits or, or otherwise be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity on a community college campus or in the central office of the Board of Trustees.   The Board recognized that a physical or functional impairment is a disability only to the extent that it contributes to cutting the person off from some valued experience, activity or role.  Higher education is therefore especially important to people with disabilities, since it aims to increase every student's access to valued experience, activities or roles.  Improving access for students and employees mean removing existing barriers that are physical, programmatic and attitudinal; it also means taking care not to erect new barriers along the way.
