Jason Northrop

Psychologist at Parallel

Dr. Northrup is skilled in psychoeducational assessment, accommodation delivery, and universal design with applied experience interpreting Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). He is a dedicated disability services and student affairs professional with a Doctorate in School Psychology from the University at Albany, State University of New York.

Dr. Northrup has spent considerable time in postsecondary and non-profit settings applying and interpreting the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. These provide a framework and important guidance that prohibits discrimination on the basis of disability and ensures that all individuals have equitable and fair access. This is especially important in secondary and postsecondary education settings where courses and examinations are offered. Accommodation recommendations and requests logically flow from the findings of a psychoeducational assessment. This is data-based decision making at its best.
