Emerging research has found that the COVID-19 pandemic's rapid shift to remote education created a greater need to utilize disability resource offices within the postsecondary environment. Currently, no research has disaggregated disability resource office experiences by institutional level or explored how two-year disability resource offices have engaged in disability and accessibility strategies during the pandemic. This paper compared the experiences of disability resource office professionals at two-year and four-year disability resource offices as they attempted to collaborate on disability-related initiatives within their campus environment during the first nine months of the COVID-19 pandemic. Implications for two-year disability resource offices are discussed.
