SUMMARY:On a Role: Practical Aspects of Role Theory
DESCRIPTION:For those with some knowledge of Social Role Valorization principles\, and who are hungry for how to help people move into valued roles\, this workshop is for you. How do you identify roles people might be interested in? Once you have a role in mind\, how might you help a person enter that role? How can adaptations and accommodations be used which will enable people with significant competencies impairments to be successful?   Geeta\, Leela and Ranjana will discuss some of the practical ways that we can walk alongside people with disabilities as they successfully move into valued roles. An “SRV Gem”\, this workshop is intended for people who have attended brief versions of a day or less covering the basics of “SRV”.

SUMMARY:Some Lessons from the Era of Moral Treatment: Especially\, What We can Learn and Apply to the Teaching and Implementation of SRV
DESCRIPTION:Around 1800\, a movement arose in Europe that soon spread to America\, called “moral treatment”\, taught a service approach\, especially to those with mental disorders\, that stood in strong positive contrast to their then-prevailing very negative interpretation and treatment\, as if they were menaces or even sub-human. Moral treatment emphasized culturally normative environments\, high expectancies\, much active engagement in valued activities and routines of life\, the minimization of both physical restraints and of drugs\, and the importance of not “medicalizing” mental afflictions\, i.e\, not interpreting them as diseases. In many ways\, moral treatment was a forerunner of the normalization principle and Social Role Valorization (SRV) in our day. For a short while\, it had spectacular success in habilitating people\, but was eventually defeated by the materialistic paradigm of psychiatry that spread to other service domains as well. The presentation will explain moral treatment\, draw parallels with SRV\, and point out some lessons from this almost-unknown positive episode in the history of mental services. At the end of the presentation\, there will be time for questions and discussion.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n  \n \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:The Road Most Travelled: Using the Culturally Valued Analogue (Bengali)
DESCRIPTION:What is the starting point for establishing a vision alongside someone? For thinking about how to help a person move into a valued role? For helping someone develop deeper friendships? For helping someone get engaged more with the community? Like a bright red thread\, the idea of the “Culturally Valued Analogue” runs through all SRV theory\, providing such practical guidance on where to start and how to proceed with supporting someone with a disability to live a full life. \nIn supporting people with disability to live good lives\, there’s a lot to learn from what already exists in society. We can use this as an anchor point from which to gear our efforts. Intended for those with a basic understanding of Social Role Valorization\, this participatory workshop will help us develop the “thinking practice” of grounding ourselves in the ordinary before we begin to adapt and accommodate to help people be fully engaged.

SUMMARY:Model Coherency as the Key to Human Service Quality - An Online Introductory Exploration
DESCRIPTION:This Zoom presentation aims to introduce you to Dr. Wolf Wolfensberger’s newly published books: Model Coherency – The Key to Human Service Quality Vol 1\,2 & 3 and stimulate renewed interest in the study of model coherency and application. \nDr. Wolfensberger offers advanced insights into model\ncoherency\, with much new material on the fundamental\nimportance of assumptions\, the culturally valued analogue\,\nthe interconnection between model coherency and Social\nRole Valorization\, including PASSING and PASS\, the\nconstruct of need\, and the distinction between service\ncontent and service process.\nWhile this brief event cannot thoroughly explore these\nareas\, we hope it will encourage your further study of Dr.\nWolfersberger writings about them.\nPresentation topics will include the history of the model\ncoherency construct\, an overview of the four major\nelements of any human service model\, exploration of the\nsix major “tool subjects” of model coherency\, and the\nsuggested frameworks for service evaluation and service\ndesign.\nThe presentation will conclude with suggestions of potential\nways to more fully bring model coherency into ongoing efforts to teach and implement SRV.

SUMMARY:The Challenge of Being a Good Server When That is Not Made Easy Pickering\, ON Canada
DESCRIPTION:Direct service work is where “the rubber meets the road”; where the needs of people who\nreceive various types of human services are addressed. However\, good direct service\nwork can get lost in all the other things that surround and impinge on it\, such as laws and\nregulations\, union rules\, family concerns and demands\, etc. This workshop is intended to\nbe an opportunity for direct human service workers and those who supervise them to\nreflect on the challenge of trying to be a good server to people in need when\, for all sorts\nof reasons\, that is not easy to do. Family members\, volunteers\, direct service workers\, and\nthose in supervisory or administrative positions will all find this workshop beneficial.\nThe workshop will outline different kinds of direct service\, such as teaching\, nursing\,\nassisting with daily living\, whether at home or in another setting\, and employment\nassistance. It will explain how necessary and meritorious such service is\, and then\ndescribe some characteristics that distinguish good direct service from service that is\nharmful\, bad\, or simply indifferent.\nThe workshop will next present some of the most common obstacles to good service\, and\nexplain why it is so hard to provide good direct service. These obstacles include services\nbeing very formalized or rigid\, and societal values that do not support good service\, direct\nservice work\, servers\, and the people being served being viewed as of low value.\nFurthermore\, some kinds of direct service work are seen as the last option for people who\ncannot get any other kind of employment. Also\, services are often expected to do more\nthan they can realistically accomplish.\nThe last part of the workshop will review some possible actions for direct service workers\nand those who supervise them in light of all that has been covered. These actions have to\ndo with being or becoming a person of moral integrity within problem-ridden systems. A\nnumber of these actions will require the service worker to reflect on what kind of person\nthey want to be. While very helpful\, these are not actions that will fix all the problems that\nwill be reviewed.\nThe workshop consists of lectures\, with opportunities for questions and discussion during\nthe day.

SUMMARY:Valued Lives 4.0
DESCRIPTION:Valued Lives is being offered as a Residential Certificate Course to select thought leaders and emerging influencers of practice from across India. This body of knowledge was offered in India for the first time in 2016\, and the impact was immense. “SRV” theory is influencing the development of inclusive lives for people with disability in powerful ways. This is a residential certification course offered only to select leaders and emerging professionals\, family members\, and advocates. It is a theory course\, and will be followed by opportunities to implement\, build on\, and use the ideas in practice. It is our intention to continue to build on the community of practice currently using and sharing “SRV” across India. It should be noted that the materials are applicable to all devalued and marginalized persons in any society\, and our presenters and leaders have particular expertise working alongside people with developmental and psycho-social disability towards fuller\, richer\, better lives. This is an extensive time and resource commitment investing in leadership and future leaders. It is also a rigorous course which requires the full engagement and focus of each participant.

SUMMARY:Distance Introduction to Social Role Valorization
DESCRIPTION:  \nCourse Overview and Objectives:  \n  \nThe Introduction to Social Role Valorization is an intensive workshop which presents the idea of assisting people with disabilities and other devalued conditions to have positive social roles as a productive and helpful response to wounding life experiences. Social Role Valorization is a comprehensive theory which provides insights as to why certain groups of people become devalued in society\, what life experiences are likely to befall people once they have become devalued in the eyes of others\, why valued social roles are a powerful response in combatting the negative life experiences\, and ten essential themes which can guide implementers in pursuing valued social roles by\, with\, and for those practitioners desire to serve. \n  \nAn Introduction to Social Role Valorization is the foundational course for communicating the theory of Social Role Valorization. This introduction is a pre-requisite to participating in the practicum workshop: An Introduction to PASSING. \n  \nThis foundational material is essential to those wishing to serve others in meaningful ways\, and who are impassioned to make a difference in the lives of others. Many participants experience the learning within this event as the most helpful\, inspiring\, and clarifying body of knowledge they have been exposed to in their professional development\, and it assists in long-term understanding and focus on being of service to others in ways that matter. \nThe workshop includes pre-recorded as well as live presentations\, small and large group live reflection and discussion\, online forums and resource materials. Participants should be prepared for significant presentations. \nThe objectives of this course are to provide better understanding of the negative life experiences of people who have been devalued and the implications of those life experiences\, as well as to provide a framework which can serve as a foundational guide for those who are committed to the work of making life better for devalued people.

SUMMARY:With Families in the Lead: Partnering with Families to Use SRV
DESCRIPTION:Often the best examples of people with disabilities accessing and contributing to the good things in life\, in ordinary but powerful ways that show possibility\, take place in a family context. I have found it to be powerful\, effective and often life-changing to bring the theory and framework of SRV to the attention of families. From there we work together to use SRV to understand and analyze the world around us\, to guide planning and implementation of strategies that bring about roles\, relationship and places of belonging and contribution to people’s lives. \nThrough stories and real-life examples\, the session explores bringing the ideas of SRV to families\, and will end with a short look at Ethical Partnering between family and agencies\, exploring the questions: What does a principled\, ethical connection to a principled organization look like\, why does this matter\, and how do agencies provide support without getting in the way?

SUMMARY:An Introductory Explanation of Wolfensberger’s Model Coherency As the Key to Human Service Quality
DESCRIPTION:This two-hour presentation via zoom is designed to provide a synopsis of Dr. Wolf Wolfensberger’s newly published three-volume book on model coherency\, and to\nstimulate renewed interest in its study and application. Dr. Wolfensberger’s book offers his most advanced insights into model coherency\, with much new material on the\nfundamental importance of assumptions\, the culturally valued analogue\, the\ninterconnection between model coherency and Social Role Valorization\, including PASSING and PASS\, the construct of need\, and the distinction between service content and service process.\nWhile this brief event cannot thoroughly explore these areas\, we hope it will encourage your further study of Dr. Wolfensberger writings about them.\nPresentation topics will include the history of the model coherency construct\, an overview of the four major elements of any human service model\, exploration of the six major “tool subjects” of model coherency\, and the suggested frameworks for service\nevaluation and service design.\nThe presentation will conclude with suggestions of potential ways to more fully bring model coherency into ongoing efforts to teach and implement SRV.

DESCRIPTION:This session is open to ISRVA Members\, and a registration flyer will be sent directly to members by January2. Membership is inexpensive and can be gained here.  For information\, contact eneuville@khs.org \nThe major evaluation instruments for SRV-based evaluation\, PASS and PASSING\, have often been taught and used for the purpose of teaching SRV in a thorough and compelling way to those who participate on teams. In fact\, PASSING workshops have been used as a practicum experience beyond the multi-day theory course much more often than as an actual evaluation tool. Susan Thomas will detail the profound and fundamental change made within one organization as a result of two SRV-based evaluations. Much is to be learned from both the evaluation conducted and from observing the change over time. As always\, time will be given for presentation\, followed by group discussion. \nSusan Thomas directs the Training Institute for Human Service Planning\, Leadership and Change Agentry\, and also serves as the Training Coordinator.  She has been an associate of the Training Institute for many years and holds degrees in psychology and special education. She is author of numerous articles on Normalization and Social Role Valorization and is co-author\, with Professor Wolfensberger\, of PASSING and other publications. Ms Thomas has also worked for many years in voluntary\, informal service to people with disabilities\, and poor and homeless people. She has presented workshops with Professor Wolfensberger in many countries. She is a regular columnist for the SRV Journal and writes about many issues related to Social Role Valorization.
