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.

Why is critical race theory critical and where do counseling professionals go from here?Friday, March 25th, 2022 @ 7:00pm EST
Presented by: Brooks Collins-Gaines, Dr. Richard Garvin, Dr. Fawn Gordon, Dr. Megan Seaman Racism is a polarizing social and political topic in the United States. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (2021), “racism is a system – consisting of structures, polices, practices, and norms – that assigns value and determines opportunity based on the way people look or the color of their skin.” This system unjustly gives a group of people privilege, while oppressing other groups. Due to the normalized nature of racism and overt/covert prejudice the discussion of CRT is necessary for counseling professionals. Participants will learn about the history of CRT and how it has become more relevant in the counseling profession. Participants will engage in discussions related to their own experiences with racism. The presentation will conclude with participants outlining how the learned competencies and knowledge of CRT can be implemented into their own practice. Participants are eligible for 1 CE hour through NBCC CSJ Spring TOWN HallOur next town hall is scheduled for March 10th at 6pm CST/7pm EST! Join us to meet with fellow CSJ members, connect with other chapters, learn how to start your own chapter, and discover new ways to get involved with CSJ!
