Honoring Veterans Inclusively Co-Creating Belonging at UMBC for Veterans with Disabilities
On November 11,  we celebrate our veterans on-campus, within the extended UMBC community, and beyond.  We are taking a moment to go over resources that might be valuable to this community:

For Student Veterans with disabilities - Student Disability Services remains an academic resource for disability-based accommodations.  Register online via the SDS link here.

Employee Veterans with disabilities may request work-related accommodations via UMBC's Accessibility and Disability Services - and may begin the process via this brief online form.

Additional resources for supporting the disabled veteran community at home and at work include:

Wounded Warrior and Caregiver Resource Guide -Dept. of Labor, January 2022

Veterans: Resources by Disability-Job Accommodation Network

Veterans and the ADA: A Guide for Employers-EEOC

Employment Resources for Veterans-Dept. of Labor: Office of Disability Employment Policy
