Greetings from the Membership Committee! Do you know any Directors who haven’t yet joined AUCCCD but are curious? We are pleased to announce two new programs for potential new members.
As you may have heard, the AUCCCD Board is developing a conflict of interest policy, borne from the growth of our association and the vendor industry surrounding our work - not to mention, it is an ethical best practice for all association boards. I wanted to take this opportunity to provide some insight into our process and also answer some questions that have come in during the comment period.

The Association for University and College Counseling Center Directors (AUCCCD) and the Center for Collegiate Mental Health (CCMH) share and collaborate on data regarding counseling center trends.
