Equal Representation for Licensed Professional Counselors: A Professional Advocacy Campaign Targeting the Pennsylvania State Board Website

Friday November 6, 2026 5:30pm - 6:00pm EST

The Pennsylvania State Board of Social Workers, Marriage and Family Therapists and Professional Counselors is the authoritative source for LPC and LAPC licensure information in the state, yet the Board website consistently omits, misroutes, and marginalizes professional counseling content. This poster presents an advocacy campaign initiated by a Pennsylvania counselor educator to address equal representation for professional counselors on the Board website and to highlight the board composition inequity codified in state statute since 1987. Pennsylvania LPCs, counselor educators, and students are invited to learn about the issues, consider joining the effort, and apply the ACA Advocacy Competencies to professional-level systemic change.
