"Using a strong research foundation and providing a multitude of practical examples, the text shares ways school counseling programs impact student outcomes, such as academic achievement and social-emotional-learning growth, while illustrating how to use evidence-based school counseling interventions to fulfill the ASCA Mindsets and Behaviors. Truly a valuable resource for school counseling training programs and school counselors that wish to apply evidence-based school counseling practice and make measurable impacts on student outcomes!"

"Brigman, Villares, and Webb have provided school counseling students, practitioners, and scholars with an essential text that should be read and re-read and applied and reapplied. Readers will especially appreciate the inference that school counseling practice is a means to vivify social and emotional development in students. Additionally, the authors provide clear and usable suggestions designed to assist school counselors illustrating their work as evidence-based."
