American School Counselor Association Ethical Code Changes Relevant to Family Work
Bodenhorn, Nancy
Family Journal Counseling and Therapy for Couples and Families, v13 n3 p316-320 Jul 2005
Professional organizations regularly review and revise their codes of ethics. The American School Counselor Association (ASCA) completed this task in June 2004. At the 2004 national conference, the leadership team, consisting of state presidents, past presidents, and president elects, voted to adopt the changes. These changes, as outlined in Table 1, and the implications of these changes for practitioners working with families and schools are the focus of this article. The table includes the wording from the 1998 version in the left column and the wording from the 2004 version in the right column. For the purposes of this article, only those changes most relevant to family work are included. School counselors are advised to refer to the entire ASCA code to ensure awareness of other changes. Recent changes to the American School Counselor Association ethical codes relevant to working with families are outlined. Implications for school counselors, counselor educators, and other counselors working with school counselors are also indicated.
