Description
Featuring contributed chapters written by experts in the field, Working with Students with Disabilities: Utilizing Resources in the Helping Profession provides readers with valuable perspective about leveraging resources to promote positive change in the lives of students. Readers cultivate a deeper understanding of the systemic and historical reasons why students with disabilities don't always receive the support they need, from kindergarten through undergraduate and graduate studies. The text helps readers learn how to identify and implement resources to better assist students with disabilities at all levels.
The chapters address culturally responsive teaching; disability acts, ADA standards, and their impact on inclusion; meeting the needs of veteran students with disabilities in higher education; undiagnosed PTSD and the implications for counselor education programs at historically black colleges and universities; promoting self-advocacy in students with disabilities; leading the next generation; and more. At the end of each chapter, questions and considerations promote self-reflection and deeper consideration of the material.
Working with Students with Disabilities is designed to support future and practicing helping professionals at all levels who work with students with disabilities, including school counselors, counselor educators, and instructors.
