Abstract

The family can be a help or a hindrance to the client during the rehabilitation process. This article identifies three roles for the rehabilitation counselor when working with families. Challenged by the demands of illness and disability, each is presented in the context of how the counselor can maximize the resources of the family which will facilitate, in turn, the rehabilitation of a family member. Recognizing the need for intensified education in the areas of the family and rehabilitation, this article also discusses a course which was developed by the authors to increase the knowledge and skills of rehabilitation counselors when utilizing the resources of the family during the rehabilitation process.
