This textbook outlines several models for comprehensive school counseling programs, then defines specific components of the programs identified in both the comprehensive guidance program model (CGPM) and the ASCA national model. Brown (University of North Carolina) and Trusty (Pennsylvania State University) also discuss the needs of minority students, factors influencing counselor's role assignments, the traits of effective leaders, the advocacy process, and using technology to deliver services.
