Spring 2025 News

Welcome back, students!

DSPS: ACE HAS MOVED!
All DSPS services formerly in Building 2400 can now be found downstairs in Building 100 (specifically where the WRAC used to be).
Please come visit us in our new location!

Classes begin on January 21.  

Welcome to Chabot DSPS! 

At Chabot College, giving all students an equal opportunity for success by devoting ourselves to accessible education is a fundamental value.

By joining the Disabled Students Programs & Services (DSPS) program in Building 2400 (ACE, or the Accessibility Center for Education), students are afforded the chance to get the specialized supports, tools, tech, and counseling they need to be their very best.

We welcome students with any disability, visible or invisible, and have dedicated counseling, adaptive classes, and accessible technology to support you on your educational journey.
