Issues, Issues and MORE Issues

Addressing a wide range of issues in groups can be a difficult task.  As a school counselor, I plan to utilize a needs assessment to determine the needs of the students in the school.  The assessment is built around specific competencies that meet academic, personal/social and college/career domains.  The needs assessment evaluates the current status of the program, assesses student needs and takes the information attained and incorporates those specific needs into the counseling program.  The needs assessment equips counselors and administration to make better informed decisions regarding the comprehensive school counseling program to provide services for all students.  Individual counseling, guidance lessons, small-group counseling and peer groups are the delivery systems used to address the wide range of issues.
