Campus disability support departments want to get the word out about how students may be affected by long COVID.  The Long COVID Task Force work, including the role of UMBC's very own Service Coordinator within Student Disability Services, has created tips and resources to help them navigate college with lingering effects from COVID.

Learn more about the work for Supporting Students with Long COVID with today's lead article from Inside Higher Ed, linked here.  

The article covers how students working with health care providers may work with departments like Student Disability Services (link).  For those new to the process, learn more about Getting Started with SDS here (link).
