November 10 & 17 Virtual Simulation Lab: Group Work with YWD

Upon completion of this module on Facilitating Group Work with Adolescents with Disabilities, participants will be able to formulate and process life-skill development through group work, so they can effectively provide career planning and preparation experience.

The exercises in this activity include two 1-hour synchronous role-play sessions focused on facilitating group work with adolescents with disabilities.

The scenarios will be specific to discussions with a group of young people with disabilities about work-based opportunities and their specific vocational interests. In the first session, you and your colleagues will introduce the topic with the intention of sparking interest. The second session allows you to use your skills to go deeper into the topic with the group.

Learning Objectives

• Establish trust and rapport with adolescents with disabilities in a group setting
