Where are the accessible entrances and exits in my building?

Some details of the accessible entrances and exits for buildings are available on DAC’s buildings pages. If you need more information, please reach out to access@berkeley.edu.

Does my classroom have accessible features?

There is a list of accessible features in classrooms on the classroom database or on 25 Live. You can also ask your Disability Specialist.

How do I report an architectural or physical access barrier?

You can use DAC’s contact form to let us know about any architectural or physical access barriers.

What happens when I make a report of an architectural or physical access barrier?

DAC has some emergency funding which is used to remediate smaller architectural barriers, or where the architectural barrier may be causing immediate issues, such as a wheelchair lift being broken, or an accessible door opener not working. 

What work is done on campus to prevent and remove architectural barriers?

The Coordinating Committee for the Removal of Architectural Barriers (CCRAB) works very closely with the Campus Architect, Capital Projects, and the Building Department to ensure that new buildings or renovation work done on campus comply with relevant federal and state building codes on accessibility.
