Working Together: Navigating the Multiple Levels of Advocacy with and For Our Clients

Presenter: Tiffany P. Brooks, Ph.D., LPC, NCC

Advocating with and for our clients continues to be crucial to the counselor role. In this interactive session, we will discuss partnering with individuals, lobbying, public awareness campaigns, and community outreach, as we strive to influence policymakers and educate the public about the importance of mental health. We hope to amplify the voices of our clients and advocate for systemic change. Attendees will brainstorm ways they can engage in advocacy with and for their clients.
