Rehabilitation Counselors are the only professionals trained at a graduate level to serve people with disabilities. Rehabilitation counselors work in a variety of settings in order to assist individuals with disabilities in accessing work and independence. We believe work and independence is possible for all people, regardless of ability level. Rehabilitation counselors and educators also participate in a number of advocacy endeavors in pursuit of this belief; via policy, grassroots, research, and communication.

RCEA was born of a recognition that rehabilitation counselors and educators need to communicate and collaborate in order to provide the best possible services to individuals with disabilities.
