Resource Library

The Disability Law Center of Alaska (DLC) is designated as the State of Alaska’s P&A agency. With offices in Anchorage and Juneau, DLC provides legally based advocacy to people with disabilities throughout Alaska.

This video resource hub features curated playlists including “Know Your Rights,” “Supported Decision-Making Agreements,” and “Alaska’s Shared Vision,” among others. Each video is designed to inform and inspire self-advocates, educators, and families by addressing legal rights, community inclusion, and pathways to independence. With accessible formats including ASL interpretation, audio description, and open captions, the DLC video library ensures that critical information is available to all. These videos are a valuable tool for planning, learning, and building confidence during the transition from school to adulthood.

This article outlines your rights and responsibilities as a student with disabilities, and the duty that postsecondary institutions owe to you. It also explains the obligations of higher education institutions to provide academic accommodations—such as auxiliary aids and services—to avoid discrimination on the basis of disability.
