2018 CI Conference

The practice, whether we are a teacher, a counselor, a speech therapist, a school psychologist, educational diagnostician, or other professional working with Pre-K to 12 students, is restricted to assessment/identification and treatment/accommodation/intervention of students with disabilities. Lost in the process is the fact that the disability “label” is one that the child carries through their rest of their lives often without the knowledge or recognition that having a disability is only a small part of one’s identity. Participants will reflect and challenge their own beliefs about disabilities and the resulting impact on their practice.
