Susan Harrod, a Mental Health Counselor at Wapak Middle School in Wapakoneta, Ohio, recognizes that school-based clinical mental health counselors face complex legal and ethical challenges, especially when others may not fully understand the regulations that guide their work. Susan will facilitate a session addressing these nuanced issues, including relevant laws, the 2026 ACA Code of Ethics, ethical decision-making, record-keeping, and informed consent practices, to support and protect clinical counselors in school settings.
