• are an Indigenous undergraduate or graduate student taking courses on the St. George campus,
• experience difficulties affecting your learning in lectures, labs or tutorials and,
• have a disability, or believe you may have a disability, and identify with any of the disability categories below:
  • Acquired brain injury or concussion

Erin will be available to all Indigenous students with disabilities to offer pathways through the Accessibility Services registration process.
