2020-2021 Association for Humanistic Counseling Emerging Leaders Program

The AHC Emerging Leaders program was developed to allow student and new professional leaders to participate in AHC activities, receive mentorship, and connect with professional networking opportunities.

Emerging Leaders will be selected to serve for the 2020-21 term (July, 2020 to July, 2021). Master’s level students, doctoral level students, and new professionals (having graduated in the past year) will be selected as AHC emerging leaders. Recipients must be an AHC member at the time of application and fall into the master’s, doctoral, or new professional categories. Emerging Leaders choose an area of interest within the division and receive mentoring related to that area. Emerging Leaders will provide a minimum of 50 hours of service to an AHC committee, project, or task. Emerging Leaders will also have opportunities to learn the responsibilities associated with serving in elected leadership positions within our association. They will also receive FREE conference registration for the 2021 AHC conference.

Emerging Leaders will be featured in our newsletter, Infochange, and recognized at the AHC meeting at the American Counseling Association Conference.
