Develop an advocacy statement that addresses the importance of diversity and advocacy as it relates to career counseling.

Develop an advocacy statement that addresses the importance of diversity and advocacy as it relates to career counseling. When creating your advocacy statement, be sure to address the key components of advocacy, including a discussion of how you might advocate for clients and students across micro, meso, and macro levels of society. Much like a theoretical orientation statement, your goal is to describe your commitment to social change and advocacy for all clients and students in a fair and safe manner.

• Describe three culturally sensitive ways in which you might apply career development theories while also addressing these socioculural factors.
• Include specific advocacy strategies to address the client’s/student’s needs at the appropriate levels.
