| GHC Disability Support Services Grays Harbor College is dedicated to education of the highest quality with an emphasis on promoting the worth of every individual. This philosophy extends to all students, implemented for students with disabilities through the Disability Support Services Office. The goal of this office is to work with students with disabilities to minimize the impact of their conditions on their education. Policies and procedures in the services currently offered may be reasonably modified so that students with disabilities, who are otherwise qualified to attend college, can work at their optimum level at GHC. The Disability Support Services Office provides the means for students with disabilities to integrate fully into all Grays Harbor College activities, to reasonably remove physical barriers that would prevent participation in college programs, and to promote greater awareness and understanding of students with disabilities on campus and in the community.
