Oppose CACREP only requirement
 

I strongly oppose the CACREP only requirment legislation that will destroy a vast amount of mental health resources for people who reside in Virginia.  I am licensed clinical professional counselor and this legislation is dangerous.  Individuals who are unable to access adequate mental health care could be a risk.  Please do not pass this legislation.  Individuals who attend none CACREP institutions take identical courses, receive thousand of hours of supervision and attend mutliple CEU trainings after graduate school.  This legislation is awful.
