National   Counseling   Awareness   Month

Counselors for Social Justice celebrates National Counseling Awareness Month! The theme for this year’s Counseling Awareness Month is “Train Your Brain With Counseling” because counseling is not just about treating serious mental illness, but an opportunity for all individuals to open themselves to new possibilities and improve their personal quality of life.

Ways YOU can celebrate National Counseling Awareness Month is by sending love and appreciation to the counselors in your lives, diving in to your first experience with counseling or return to a new provider after time away, and donate to various organizations that support mental health services!​

New  CSJ  Counselor  Education  &  Supervision  Task  Force

CSJ has launched a new committee - the Counselor Education & Supervision Task Force!

The goal of the CE & S Task Force is to provide best practices and resources in social justice work for counselor educators and supervisors, as it is the responsibility of counselor educators and supervisors to ensure that counseling trainees (1) understand power, privilege, and oppression as it exists in the counseling/supervision room and in all systems in society, (2) have the skills to challenge oppressive systems, and (3) have the skills to empower and work alongside oppressed communities to ensure equitable educational, mental health, economic, and life outcomes.

To get involved, email info@counseling-csj.org

Why   is   critical  race   theory   critical   and   where   do   counseling  professionals   go   from   here?

Friday, March 25th, 2022 @ 7:00pm EST
Presented by: Brooks Collins-Gaines, Dr. Richard Garvin, Dr. Fawn Gordon, Dr. Megan Seaman

​
Racism is a polarizing social and political topic in the United States. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (2021), “racism is a system – consisting of structures, polices, practices, and norms – that assigns value and determines opportunity based on the way people look or the color of their skin.” This system unjustly gives a group of people privilege, while oppressing other groups. Due to the normalized nature of racism and overt/covert prejudice the discussion of CRT is necessary for counseling professionals. Participants will learn about the history of CRT and how it has become more relevant in the counseling profession. Participants will engage in discussions related to their own experiences with racism. The presentation will conclude with participants outlining how the learned competencies and knowledge of CRT can be implemented into their own practice.

Participants are eligible for 1 CE hour through NBCC
