OPPOSE
 

I very strongly oppose the proposed changes to the state's Board of Counseling that would require all professional counselors to have graduated only from CACREP accredited programs. This is a very concerning move of an accrediting body attempting to create total domintation of a very important field of practice. I see absolutely no benefit in approving this change and sincerely hope it is struck down. Thank you.
