Disability, Access, and Inclusion

 

The office of Disability, Action, and Inclusion– DAI at URI is proud to serve our veterans and military-connected students. We are happy to assist in making your transition to college as smooth as possible.

In nearly all instances, veterans acquire their disabilities, either in service or afterwards, and sometimes as a result of an improperly diagnosed condition. Veterans are taught to think tribally. This means prioritizing the mission and putting the needs of the team ahead of the individual. We understand that stigma may prevent you from sharing struggles and seeking support. We want you to know that we understand and are here. 

Reasonable accommodations are made on a case by case basis, in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act, and URI’s program requirements. Disability, Access, and Inclusion Coordinators are available to meet with prospective and current students.
