A Brief Primer on Social Role Valorization
The preconference workshop on February 21 is a brief overview of Social Role Valorization, intended as a primer for those interested in attending the International SRV Conference from February 22-24, and want some basic information on the topic. It will also be a useful refresher for those who have studied SRV.

Topics covered are social devaluation and how it is made manifest in people’s lives, the importance of valued social roles in assisting people to experience the available ‘good things of life,’ and the ten themes whereby SRV is expressed.

The session is presented by Jo Massarelli, Director of The SRV Implementation Project based in Worcester, Massachusetts US. Jo worked closely with Dr. Wolf Wolfensberger. She has taught workshops with him across the globe, and is an associate of the Training Institute in Syracuse, New York. Jo is also a founding member of the North American SRV Council and the International SRV Association.
