Who is responsible for accessibility at PCC?

We all are!  Because accessibility is the work of the whole college, we formed the PCC Accessibility Council, which brings together students, faculty, staff and deans in the name of making PCC accessible. The steering committee meets every term to identify necessary improvements. The committee oversees three work groups that address barriers in our environments.
