Make an Impact: Apply to Become an NBCC and Affiliates Board Director or Trustee

NBCC and Affiliates is currently accepting applications for directors and trustees to serve on our affiliate boards. If you are interested in sharing your expertise to help us fulfill our mission to promote and advance mental health care, we’d like to encourage you to apply.

NBCC and Affiliates is made up of three affiliate organizations: the National Board for Certified Counselors (NBCC), the Center for Credentialing & Education (CCE), and the NBCC Foundation (NBCCF). Each is governed by its own volunteer board of directors and trustees.

Letters of interest will be accepted until Jan. 23, 2022, and candidates with the strongest qualifications will be contacted for more information. New members will serve a 3-year term beginning July 1, 2022, with the possibility of serving a second 3-year term.

• How you demonstrate your professional identity as a counselor, and any other professional identities
• Areas of specialization and clinical practice
• Elected board or organizational governance positions you have held within or outside the counseling profession, and other boards you serve on within or outside the counseling profession
