Abstract

This article will discuss the findings from a collaborative self-study involving two school counseling faculty, one graduate student, and an alumna of the school counseling program who is now a first-year school counselor. Given the dearth of research exploring EducatorCounselor identity development, the researchers sought to understand how faculty prepare pre-service school counselors to engage in antiracist practices through institutional and andragogical practices and how students experience these practices in developing their EducatorCounselor identity. The findings will provide a framework for antiracist foundations in school counselor preparation and illustrate the practices needed for school counselor educators to actualize antiracist work.

Public Significance Statement

This collective self-study provides a framework for school counselor educators to reflect on their practices, examine their programs, and make antiracist practices foundational and ongoing. In this self-study, faculty members' create seven conditions that influence pre-service school counselors' EducatorCounselor identity. Findings can inform school counselor educators programs on conditions for learning and EducatorCounselor identity development.
