Assisting Students with Disabilities : What School Counselors Can and Must Do

This book provides a user-friendly reference for school counsellors in dealing with the demands of their work, especially on their work with special-needs students. Most counsellors preparation programmes simply cannot include more than a quick overview of the laws and a basic unit on goals and objectives when it comes to working with students with disabilities. This book fills that gap, and gives more background on the mandates, and offers many more practical resources. It gives counsellors clear directions for understanding their roles and responsibilities with children who have disabilities, as well as tools that will help them succeed in their work.
