Summary:
Your counseling makes a difference in the lives of at-risk students every day. To meet accountability standards, though, you need data the number-crunchers can understand. With this user-friendly manual, make the shift to evidence-based practices and interventions in a data-driven, comprehensive school counseling program based on ASCA's national model. The book includes: visual guides and checklists for every step of the process; examples of successful program evaluation; guidance on developing and submitting a successful Recognized ASCA Model Program (RAMP) application; supporting documents in an online resource center.
