ASCA National Model

The ASCA National Model is a framework for school counseling programs developed by the American School Counselor Association. It emphasizes a comprehensive approach to support students' academic, social, and emotional development. The model guides counselors in creating a structured program that includes data-driven practices, collaboration with educators and families, and the implementation of targeted interventions. It aims to enhance student outcomes by providing equitable access to resources and fostering a positive school environment where all students can thrive. The model promotes accountability by requiring counselors to measure the effectiveness of their programs and make improvements based on data.
