Communication Access for Deaf and Hard of Hearing Students

If you are a NECC student with a documented hearing disability, NECC’s Deaf and Hard of Hearing Services and Learning Accommodations can assist with the coordination of communication services so you can take classes and participate in college activities, programs and services.

Services Include:

• Communication Access Services (Interpreting, Speech-to-Text, and CART services)
• Assistive Listening Devices
• Notetaking Referrals
• Access Advocacy
• Educational Advising
• Referrals to NECC and community services
• Collaboration with Learning Accommodations
• And more!

The Learning Accommodations Center collaborates with Deaf and Hard of Hearing Services to enable NECC to meet legal obligations under Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act and Amendments.
