  1. Jeannie, I just read your post about Adult Bullying. I teach in a private adult technical school and I see these problems all the time. Can you recommend other site and blogs that offer advice for dealing with adult learners.

  2. Jeannie,

    I know as counselors we don't reinvent the wheel, and a lot of times we do not have the time to make up our own charts or programs; or even know where to begin. So thank you for compiling and sharing all these wonderful resources.

  3. Hi Jeannie,
    I really admire and appreciate your work and generosity to share all these documents with your fellow school counsellors.
    I work in Saudi Arabia where the awareness of counsellor's role is missing. Can you tell me how can I persuade administration to give more importance to the role of counselor in school?
    Thanks
    Saira

  6. I love this site. Being new to the profession I have felt stressed about all the requirements. But with all these resources I feel better and more ready!

  7. Thanks for these resources! I have a question about the Counselor Challenge Home card. Did the students need to have the whole card initialed before they turned it in?

    1. Yes, students needed to have completed all the acts of kindness on their home card and have it initialed before turning it in.
