How can WSCA best partner with other state school counseling organizations to make our voice heard?
The Committee is investigating how to utilize the strengths of other states’ school counseling leadership to help us in our quest for a stronger political voice in our state.

Should WSCA employ a lobbyist?
We know other Pupil Service professions employ a lobbyist to advocate for them at both state and national levels. Should WSCA do the same? We are exploring the costs and benefits of that option.
