Per current SF State guidelines, masks/face coverings are no longer required indoors. However, they are still recommended by the CDC and are preferred at DPRC when interacting with others in common areas and 1:1 with DPRC staff. Masks and face shields are available by request at DPRC reception.

New CSU Learn Training Available to all SF State Faculty & Staff
Training: Serving Students with Disabilities: Introduction
This course, while primarily intended for those in the classroom environment, is useful for any employee who serves students with disabilities. Disability is part of the human condition. To ensure inclusion in higher education, campus leaders, faculty, and staff must consider how to fully embrace all students with and without disabilities. When developing a culture of inclusion, colleges and universities have specific responsibilities to students with disabilities to ensure they can learn and achieve their goals.
This self-paced, interactive reading-based course is the first of three models and is encouraged for all SF State faculty and staff. Accessibility features included in the training module.
