In this episode, we'll discuss the concept of professional boundaries, help to clearly define what they are, why they're non-negotiable, and how to train providers and staff on maintaining clear, respectful, and appropriate professional boundaries when working with individuals with disabilities.

We'll also tackle the tricky side: the risks associated with failing to uphold professional boundaries and the common challenges that often arise.

Finally, we’ll walk through a Justice Center case study and provide actionable guidance on how to train your staff on maintaining professional boundaries.

Today’s episode isn’t about establishing rules; it’s about creating safe environments built on respect and individual autonomy.
