ACA Advisory Council
Consisting of elected representatives from ACA’s 20 divisions, four geographic regions and a student representative, ACA's Advisory Council advises the Board of Directors — influencing policy, counseling the board on practice concerns and informing it on the counseling profession. This body will have direct influence on the strategic direction ACA takes in addressing concerns of the counseling community.
