Get the Support You Deserve: Download the Free School Counselor Advocacy Plan

In all my years as a school counselor, principal, teacher and coach, one thing has remained true: no one seems to understand the role of school counselors like school counselors do! This disconnect often leads to confusion, a lack of support, and missed opportunities to truly make a change for students.

That’s why advocating for your needs isn’t optional, it’s essential.

School counselors are uniquely positioned to lead systems of support, but conversations with administrators and staff can be tough. You know what needs to change, but how do you advocate for it in a way that ensures your voice is heard and leads to real action?

This Advocacy Plan Template was created to help you do just that. Use it to:

• Clarify what you need to do your job effectively

• Identify who needs to be part of the solution

• Communicate your vision in a way that drives action

• Build a plan that centers student success and elevates your impact

Download the Advocacy Plan Template now and start building the support you and your students deserve.Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest. If you read the words back and don’t hear your own voice in your head, that’s a good sign you still have more work to do.
