- Abstract
In a statewide survey of 291 participants, professional school counselors in Alabama reported being burdened by noncounseling duties. Noncounseling duties frustrated the school counselors and prevented their alignment with the American School Counselor Association's standards and competencies. This article reports additional analysis of the data from that survey. Three overarching and urgent concerns emerged: (a) Alabama school counselors have significant noncounseling duties, (b) Alabama school counselors feel overwhelmed and misunderstood, and (c) Alabama school counselors need increased support and advocacy.
