I oppose amending Regulations Governing the Practice of Social Work [18 VAC 140 ? 20)
 

Under Virginia law, parents have the fundamental right to make decisions regarding the upbringing, education and care of their children.  The proposed ban would deny families the freedom to seek counseling aligned with their faith.  This is wrong and is unacceptable.

Thank you!
