Individuals may request deaf and hard of hearing services by contacting Organizational Development and Human Resources at leaveandaccess@valenciacollege.edu or by calling the HR4U helpline 407-582-4748 (HR4U).
Please make your request at least 5 business days in advance. While we will try our best to accommodate requests made with less notice, we cannot guarantee that a service provider will be available. Please note that a request made on Friday afternoon for Monday morning does not constitute 72 business hours' notice.
