Disability and Counseling
Lone Star College System Disability Services is proud to serve our student veterans. Disability Services recognizes that many student veterans have acquired injuries during service that may make the services of our office beneficial for the student veterans.
It is the goal of Disability Services to promote the best services and educational opportunities in a confidential setting to promote the success of our student veterans.
Disabilities
Some of the types of injuries for which we provide services include traumatic brain injury, hearing loss, vision loss, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, and many others.
All services provided are strictly confidential, and are designed to ensure that the student veteran has equal access to college classes, labs, and activities. Additionally, Disability Services provides training to faculty and staff on effective strategies for working with returning student veterans, especially those who have been injured or who have Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.
