Hello, OCA Members! Welcome to the new year, July 1, 2025 to June 30, 2026. I am excited about the opportunity during my presidency to "promote and foster cultural diversity, collaboration, competence, self-care, coaching, and supervision." I will be sharing more throughout the year about these focus areas:
I hope that you are excited about AOCC 2025. We are the sole coordinators of the conference. You can expect to experience the same effective and quality programming with some additional features. The AOCC 2025 theme is "Fostering Wellness, Equipping Counselors." We will have dynamic and engaging presentations, health & wellness experiences, and opportunities to connect with our peers across the state. Don't miss it! Registration will be opening this month; share and invite someone to attend. We have much to accomplish this year. However, “we are in this together, and together we advance.” Let us continue to build…together! Be Well!!
