SCIN

School Counseling Interest Network

Mission

Our work is about building stronger school counseling programs, school counselors, and school communities, and we believe that school counselor educators and supervisors are at the heart of this work. SCIN will actively promote school counselor education and the leadership, teaching, and supervisory roles of SCIN’s members in the counselor education profession.

Vision

SCIN seeks to be the lead resource for school counselor educators to connect, share, and receive cutting-edge information and research.

Primary Activities

The SCIN hosts monthly call-in meetings typically via zoom with guest speakers in areas of interest expressed by the members, and facilitates in-person meetings at national conferences including ACES, ACA and ASCA. Also, the SCIN has a number of workgroups on specific topics, that SCIN members can join (e.g., CACREP accreditation, supervision, elementary school counseling, and many others). An annual report of activities is provided to ACES leadership at the end of each academic year.
