There is NO documented evidence that licensed counselors who graduated from programs accredited by CACREP are better prepared than their peers who graduated from other programs!  At a time when counseling services are in high demand, and those in need are struggling to find available providers, this bill will lead to greater shortages in care providers in Virginia.
