If individuals or groups are attempting to state that CACREP accredited programs are producing graduates who should receive privileges over non-CACREP accredited program graduates, they should present documentation to justify their statements. Has a study been conducted to show that CACREP graduates have scored significantly higher on the National Counseling Exam than graduates/students from non-CACREP accredited programs? As a graduate of an HBCU in Virginia for my undergraduate degree and then a graduate of an HBCU in Maryland for my Master's degree, I believe in providing quality services to all clients who are ready, willing, and able to work with me. There is a possibility that the Great State of Virginia will unfortunately negatively affect its citizens in ways that will be unrecognized by the uninformed and felt individually and deeply for generations to come by many if they are unable to receive mental and emotional services by providers who they believe can best meet their needs. I am vehemently against any and all separation of licensed professional counselors in any way due to the need for professional unity within the United States of America to combat the growing mental health disparities that are being seen on a growing basis.
