School counselors have been called to be leaders in K-12 schools (ASCA, 2012; Education Trust National Center for Transforming School Counseling, 2009). School counseling leadership emphasizes the promotion of equitable academic achievement, career development and social/emotional development for all students. To do this, school counselors must be culturally competent, socially just, and able to advocate for the needs of the diverse students served. School counselors working in Title I schools are uniquely challenged as the population served is often vulnerable, disadvantaged, or marginalized. This article promotes the use of the Multicultural and Social Justice Counseling Competencies (MSJCC) as a leadership framework to assist school counselors in their leadership development and equity work for students - specifically in Title I schools.
