Accessibility starts with leadership. 

The Accessibility Program team wants to help you set priorities, build accountability, allocate resources, and create a culture that ensures every student and employee can fully participate.

GCCCD is part of the Accessibility Capability Maturity Model (ACMM) — a transformative framework designed to guide colleges and districts in advancing digital accessibility, offered by the California Community Colleges Accessibility Center.
