Race, Disability, & Social Justice: What is the Rehabilitation Counselor's Role?Wednesday, October 5th, 2022 at 6pm-7pm EST
Presented by Dr. Keisha G. Rogers, President-Elect of the National Association of Multicultural Rehabilitation Concerns (NAMRC) Description: Rehabilitation Counseling is a distinct, but lesser-known, area of counseling aimed at assisting persons with disabilities (PWDs) in gaining or regaining their independence through employment or other meaningful activity. The state-federal vocational rehabilitation system (VR) was designed to help PWDs achieve this goal by eliminating barriers to employment. However, there are indications that barriers exist within the vocational rehabilitation system itself. Historically, there has been evidence of racial discrepancies in service provisions in VR counseling. This presentation will provide an overview of rehabilitation counseling and examine irregularities related to race and VR service provisions. Implications and recommendations on achieving social justice in rehabilitation counseling will be addressed. Learning Objectives: As result of attending this presentation, attendees will: 1) increase awareness of the history and profession of rehabilitation counseling 2) highlight differences in VR service provisions of PWDs based on the client’s race 3) understand the rehabilitation counselors role in integrating multicultural social justice counseling competencies in serviced provided to PWDs from diverse cultural backgrounds Participants are eligible to receive 1 CE hour through NBCC.

Presented by: Chase Morgan-Swaney, LPCC, NCC, CWC Description: Queer and trans folx are striving to thrive amidst an increasingly hostile sociopolitical landscape and ascending to liberation cannot happen from the sidelines.
