This field benefits from graduates of diverse programs, benefits from multiple paths to licensure, and benefits from inclusivity of graduates from programs accredited by CACREP as well programs that are not affiliated with CACREP. My opposal is based on the following:
I urge the Commonwealth of Virginia NOT to approve this change in regulation. I too strongly believe that Virginians will be best served by a diverse body of LPCs, and not only those with degrees from programs affiliated with CACREP. By doing so you are limiting the amount of LPCs that may potentially move to your area and have not graduated from a CACREP school and potentialy causing more harm to the clients that need them. I urge you to reconsider your position.
