Counseling & Social Change

New in Fall 2022 is our Undergraduate Minor in Counseling & Social Change. This minor will invite students to explore ways social and political contexts shape peoples' experiences, relationships, and the stories that shape us. As you learn to investigate these things through new perspectives, you will also be exposed to various helping professions and learn how basic counseling skills can be helpful as a way to engage in conversations. We will talk about how these conversations can change perspectives on problems that stand against the effects of oppression, inequities, and contentious relationships that are so much a part of our political and social culture.
