Welcome to Disability Support Programs and Services (DSPS)
at San Diego Community College District
The District’s Disability Support Programs and Services provide services and courses to support students with disabilities
in the achievement of their academic and vocational goals. This program promotes equal participation in mainstream academic
programs through preparatory and skill maintenance courses, and offers courses for personal growth.
The District’s Disability Support Programs and Services programs were established to more fully accommodate the academic
and support needs of students with disabilities as mandated by Section 504 and 508 of the Rehabilitation Act and the
Americans with Disabilities Act. The Disability Support Programs and Services Departments of the Colleges and Continuing
Education offer eligible students access to a variety of specialized support services and assistive equipment in a timely
manner. These services are intended to assist students with disabilities to more successfully participate in regular
programs and activities.
The District’s Disability Support Programs and Services programs are offered at each of our Colleges and Continuing
Education. Our Interpreting Services Office and the District’s WorkAbility III program reside at the district office.
