Clinical Rehabilitation Counselors (CRCs) and Mental Health Specialists both play vital roles in supporting individuals with emotional, psychological, and functional challenges, but their areas of focus, training, and the types of interventions they provide may differ. Despite these differences, their work often intersects, especially when addressing the mental health needs of individuals with disabilities or other chronic conditions. By working together, they provide a comprehensive support system that enables individuals to achieve a higher quality of life, greater independence, and emotional well-being. Join us for a session that will be an open forum and an opportunity for live questions and responses from the presenters!
