No to CACREP only
 

I oppose the Virginia CACREP only initiative. This regulatory action will further limit the already strained mental health resources Virginians currently have access to. There is no substantial proof that indicates that counselors from CACREP programs/universities are any more qualified than counselors from non-CACREP programs/universities.
