It is the goal of our staff
to ensure the accommodation of those students who have a documented
disability and may require support services.
Catherine O'Rourke

Catherine is responsible for overseeing the administrative duties
of the SOAR office and the LOTF project. Catherine is primarily
involved in assuring that Loyalist College creates an accessible
environment where individuals are viewed on the basis of their abilities,
not disabilities. The Coordinator provides this through the dissemination
of information, services and programs that foster a philosophy of
respect, sensitivity and responsiveness.

goal of a college education. The Challengers is an initiative of
the Learning Opportunities Task Force's Virtual Centre for Excellence
in Learning Disability Integration.
