Educational Goal
Participants will gain competency in integrating social justice into their supervision practices.
Description
One cannot be truly trauma-informed without understanding the trauma of injustice. Social Justice has been recognized as a core component of the counseling and social work professions and involves expanding ourselves and our practices from being change agents on the individual level to the societal level. In this training, we will work to better understand what the ACA Code of Ethics says about social justice and advocacy, what models for supervision are based on social justice, and how to integrate advocacy into our supervision practices.
Target Audience
- Addiction Professional
- Counselor
- Marriage & Family Therapist
- Psychologist
- Social Worker
