Brenda Cartwright, Ed.D., CRC, NCC, Winston Salem University Kathryn Yamamoto, Ph.D., CRC, University of Hawaii at Mānoa Noel Ysasi, Ph.D., CRC, University of Kentucky Leslie Santos, Ph.D., CRC, University of Maryland Eastern Shore The main goal of rehabilitation counseling is to provide individuals with disabilities the opportunity to enter or remain in the world of work, enjoy quality of life, and learn to manage and cope with the consequences of physical and mental disabilities. This journey is different for those individuals whose membership in a certain group (i.e. race/ethnicity, LGBTQ groups, disability, and returning veterans with disabilities) exposes them to additional socio-cultural barriers that may hinder their intended rehabilitation process. This panel will address the impact of micrioaggressions, oppression, ableism, and other forms of discrimination in the rehabilitation counseling process. Emphasis will be made on how through the use of rehabilitation counselor education and research, these oppressive forces can be dealt with enhancing an environment of Inclusion, Equity, and Social Justice for all consumer of rehabilitation services as rehabilitation counseling approaches National Council on Rehabilitation Education All Rights Reserved. 3
