Motivation to Teach Social Action:
I am the co-founder of Counselors for Social Justice and a distant past-president. As I enter my 33rd year as a professor of Counselor Education, I'm thrilled to integrate this into my leadership and advocacy master's course and as I prepare the country's first Counselor Education and Social Justice doctoral program online in CUNY at Lehman to make a social action course required for a doctorate.
