Since 2002, the National Cross-Cultural Counseling and Education Conference has served as a professional diversity platform for critical interactions and community building around topics of oppression, identity, society, and social action. Together, we consider how counseling and education can address diversity, equity, and inclusion; systemic racism and oppression; trauma; marginalized communities; and networking with community-based organizations, corporations, local governments, and healthcare facilities. 

The NCCEC continues to be a source of restoration and a call for strategic practices for social justice advocacy, cross-cultural awareness, and change. This year’s conference theme is 

“We Are Many: Building Community and Promoting Strategic Social Justice, Advocacy, and Change”

Major Topics Include:

• Identity Development: Racial, Ethnic, Gender, Sexual Orientation, Spiritual/Religious, and Ability
• Majority Privilege and Social Group Impact
• Cultural and Ethical Competencies in Counseling, Supervision, and Education
• Anti-Oppression/Anti-Racism
• Social Justice, Social Advocacy, and Social Action
• Racial and Cultural Issues in Community, School, and Higher Education Settings
