School counselors must be aware of societal issues related to gender, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, and disabilities that may influence students’ college and career decision-making process. This awareness can assist school counselors to develop ethical and culturally relevant strategies to promote college readiness and access, and to facilitate post-secondary transitions for all students.
In a 500-750 word brochure for high school students, describe the following:
- Issues or obstacles that students may encounter in the career decision making process due to gender, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, or disabilities .
- How might these problems be combatted or overcome with compassion and care for others ?
- What can school counselors do to help all students make well-informed college and career decisions?
- How might school counselors assist students in learning to advocate for themselves?
- What community resources or organizations are available to students to assist with gender, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, or disability issues in career planning?
