School counselors hold immense potential in closing opportunity gaps and addressing the diverse social, emotional, and academic needs of students. In this revised and groundbreaking bestseller, Cheryl Holcomb-McCoy, a renowned university professor and advocate for transformative change in school counseling, empowers school counselors to integrate principles of social justice, antiracism, equity, and advocacy into their practice. This comprehensive guide delves into the underlying reasons why certain students face challenges at school, including racism, sexism, heterosexism, and classism. It offers a wealth of resources, including vignettes, strategies, activities, and reflective individual and group study questions, to equip school counselors with the knowledge and skills necessary to mitigate the impact of negative factors that hinder academic performance and healthy development, particularly among students of color. Moreover, the book outlines six essential functions of school counselors that propel schools toward more just practices, ultimately leading to higher test scores and increased student achievement. Written for both preservice and in-service school counselors and those who support them, this essential guide prepares readers to actively contribute to creating equitable conditions for success for all students. By embracing these principles and practices, school counselors can play a vital role in fostering a positive and inclusive learning environment that empowers students to reach their full potential and thrive in all aspects of their lives.
