A historic day for School Counseling in Delaware! Thanks to this bill, students throughout the State of Delaware will receive additional direct mental health services in school through the hiring of professionals such as school psychologists, school social workers, and of course, school counselors! Special thanks to the sponsoring legislators who carried the torch for this effort, to DSEA for the fantastic advocacy campaigning, and to all of our DSCA members who helped with the push to get this bill passed!
