Legislative Issues

ASCA advocates for the profession of school counseling and school counselors at the federal level and works with state associations to advance local agendas. ASCA regularly joins with other national education and advocacy organizations to improve access to school counseling and related policy issues including student mental health, career and technical education and college readiness and affordability. 

For more information on local advocacy efforts in your district and state, please contact your state association and get involved. Find your state school counselor association.
