THE DISCUSSION QUESTION POSTS ARE DUE BY TUESDAY AT MIDNIGHT. I’m very strict with discussion board deadlines. As a general rule – late discussion board posts will NOT be accepted.
One question for each unit – with multiple parts to addressThe point of the these activities are to foster discussion about the
material we are covering in the current unit. Be sure to answer the questions completely and be sure to use
spelling and grammar check.Make sure you are also making frequent and direct references to the
course materials or other resources or you will lose points. Respond to at least two classmates for each discussion.

Advocacy not only includes the actions of professional counselors on behalf of clients, but also includes professional counselors intervening with systems and organizations relevant to clients.
Professionals take on the role of advocate when employing social action to confront barriers on behalf of clients, which may result in social justice to confront injustice and inequality in society and at-risk behaviors.

We use the term at-risk to denote a set of presumed cause/effect dynamics that place the individual child or adolescent in danger of negative future events. At-risk designates a situation that is not necessarily current (although it is often used in this sense too) but that can be anticipated in the absence of intervention.
