ACAC President Gail Roaten chose to focus the Spring 2016 ACAC Newsletter on the topic of prevention of bullying and interpersonal violence in support of ACA President Thelma Duffey’s associated initiative—The 2015-2016 American Counseling Association Presidential Initiative on Anti-Bullying and Interpersonal Violence. The Newsletter included ten articles that addressed this important topic from a variety of angles. The Newsletter also highlighted the ACAC-related presentations for the ACA conference in Montreal and encouraged members to submit articles for future newsletters.
The theme for the Fall 2016 ACAC Newsletter was “Resilient Children & Adolescents.” The Newsletter contained six articles that addressed topics ranging from child sexual abuse, spirituality, mindfulness in the school setting, relationships in virtual counseling, parental consultation, and self-efficacy. ACAC-sponsored ACA presentations for the upcoming ACA conference in San Francisco March 31-June 3, 2017 were identified, as well. The Newsletter highlighted the upcoming Inaugural ACAC Conference that is to be held in Arlington, Virginia on July 20-21, 2017. Information on how to submit articles for the Spring 2017 Newsletter was also provided.
