Overview
In this introductory conference recording, Elizabeth (Betsy) Neuville explains Social Role Valorization through familiar roles such as employee, artist and family member.

Presenter credits: Elizabeth Neuville. Elizabeth is introduced as Betsy in the recording.
Certificate of Completion. This session does not offer BACB continuing education (CE) credit.
Introduced as executive director of Keystone Institute and Keystone Institute India, Betsy traces normalization and Social Role Valorization through Wolf Wolfensberger's work. An employee-role discussion links everyday roles to relationships, purpose and belonging; a firefighter example introduces image enhancement and competency enhancement.
The session examines stereotypes, rejection and segregation before turning to planning around roles rather than activities. Narrated examples include an artist, university graduate, percussionist, business co-owner and maid of honor. Betsy presents these ideas in terms of possibilities and probabilities, explicitly without guarantees.
