At the University of Illinois System Offices, accessibility is fundamental to our commitment to Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEI&B). Everyone should have equal access to participate fully in our work environments, programs, and services, regardless of ability or disability.

Creating accessible spaces is not merely a legal obligation under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and related civil rights laws; it embodies our fundamental values of respect, inclusion, and dignity for all. Whether through digital platforms, physical workspaces, or workplace policies, SHRS is dedicated to eliminating barriers and fostering environments where everyone can thrive.

Accessibility is a collective responsibility. By fostering collaboration, offering proactive support, and promoting a culture of inclusion, we are constantly working to enhance the experiences of employees, applicants, and visitors with disabilities.

If you have any questions, feedback, or suggestions, we welcome your input and encourage ongoing discussions as we work together to create a more inclusive future.
