<strong>NOSCA</strong>: <strong>National</strong> <strong>Office</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>School</strong> <strong>Counselor</strong> <strong>Advocacy</strong>
Rationale <strong>for</strong> Our Annual Survey<br />
• <strong>The</strong> absence of a school counseling presence in<br />
education re<strong>for</strong>m ef<strong>for</strong>ts.<br />
• <strong>The</strong> lack of understanding of the value and need of school<br />
counselors to improve college and career readiness.<br />
• <strong>The</strong> national, state & local impetus <strong>for</strong> increasing student<br />
achievement and college and career readiness.<br />
• <strong>The</strong> need to nationally capture and transmit the voice of<br />
school counselors to a wide range of influential<br />
organizations, policy-makers, education leaders and<br />
practitioners.<br />
