Dear Counseling Students & Faculty,

My name is Jessica Guess and I am a doctoral student at University of Cincinnati under the direction of Dr. Amanda La Guardia. To fulfill the requirements for the doctoral dissertation I am conducting a study called “Disability Competence in Counseling Faculty and Students as an Independent Facet of Multicultural Competence.” This study will help me better understand the relationship between disability competence and multicultural competence in CACREP-accredited clinical mental health counseling students and faculty. The information obtained will be useful for counseling students, counselor educators, professional counselors. For this study, you are invited to participate in an anonymous online survey on disability competence, multicultural competence, and social desirability.  About the study:
