Disability Services

The Learning Assistance Lab is the office at Monroe County Community College designated to provide support and accommodations for those with disabilities.

Our counselors assist students with disabilities with course selection, scheduling, special services and working with community resources.. We also coordinate accommodations geared to the individual needs of students and users of College facilities.

We aim to "level the playing field," giving students with disabilities equal opportunities to achieve to their full potential here at Monroe County Community College.

Services for students with disabilities are located in the Learning Assistance Lab, C-218.
