Strongly Against Cacrep
 

Hello,

I am a student at George Mason University that is currently enrolled in a masters program to become a LPC. I think it is unfortunate that Virginia wants to tell clients seven years from now that 70% of counselors nationwide are incompetent. For this reason I am against making Cacrep the only accreditation acceptable for licensure. The Virginia Board of Counseling should be supporting ALL counselors and not just some.
