SUMMARY:Beyond Good Intentions: Addressing Ableism in FCS Service Provision
DESCRIPTION:Beyond Good Intentions: Addressing Ableism in FCS Service Provision\nDate & Time\nMay 19\, 2026 03:00 PM  in\nPacific Time (US and Canada)\nDescription\nDate / Time of Webinar: Tuesday\, May19th 3pm PST to 430pm PST\nLearning Objectives:\n•	Define ableism and distinguish between individual\, structural\, and internalized ableism\n•	Identify how ableism shows up in FCS service delivery\n•	Analyze the impact of ableism on engagement\, outcomes\, and equity\n•	Apply strengths-based\, recovery-oriented\, and person-directed strategies to reduce ableism in practice\n•	Reflect on our own assumptions and service patterns using a practice audit lens\n•	Description of Webinar:\nThis training examines how ableism\, often subtle and systemic\, shows up in our behavioral health services. Participants will build awareness\, identify practice-level impacts\, and develop concrete strategies to promote equity\, autonomy\, and recovery-oriented services for individuals. Participants will explore how ableism can be embedded in everyday decisions\, including goal setting\, service planning\, documentation\, and risk assessment. The session will explore how even well-intentioned practices can unintentionally limit opportunity when expectations are lowered or choice is constrained. Participants will leave with practical tools to recognize and interrupt ableism strengthening engagement and advancing more equitable service delivery across Washington State FCS programs. \nName of Presenter: Amy Banko MS\, LPC\, NCC\, CIPS\, CPRP\nShorter Bio of Presenter:\nMs. Banko is a Lecturer in the Department of Psychiatric Rehabilitation and Counseling Professions at Rutgers\, where she serves as a trainer and implementation consultant at the Integrated Employment Institute.
