The live professional training program on Disability as Diversity is presented by Erin Andrews, PsyD, ABPP in partnership with the American Board of Professional Psychology (ABPP).

Dr. Andrews will present contemporary trends in disability language and introduce the concept of disability culture. Attendees will learn the difference between psychological adjustment to disability and disability identity development. Pertinent attitudes that affect the lived experience of disabled people will be explored. Clinically relevant suggestions for culturally competent care for persons with disabilities will be offered.
