By Invitation • Friday, December 4, 2026 • 12:00–1:30 PM Pacific
You are invited to the inaugural CCA Educator, Leader & Supervisor Forum.
One of the things we heard consistently as we rebuilt CCA from the ground up was this: counselor educators, clinical supervisors, and program leaders needed a space of their own. A place to think together about the profession at the level at which you shape it — not as practitioners seeing clients, but as the people who train them, supervise them, lead programs, and build the next generation of the counseling workforce in California.
The ELSF is a protected, vetted space built for counselor educators, clinical supervisors, and program leaders across California — co-hosted with the MS in Counseling program at California State University, Sacramento.
