The AHC Emerging Leaders program was developed to allow
student and new professional leaders to participate in AHC activities, receive
mentorship, and connect with professional networking opportunities.
Emerging Leaders will be selected to serve for the 2018-19
term (July, 2018 to July, 2019). Master’s level students, doctoral level
students, and new professionals will be selected as AHC emerging leaders.
Recipients must be an AHC member at the time of application and fall into the
master’s, doctoral, or new professional categories. Emerging Leaders choose an
area of interest within the division and receive mentoring related to that
area. Emerging Leaders will provide a minimum of 50 hours of service to an AHC
committee, project, or task. Emerging Leaders will also have opportunities to
learn the responsibilities associated with serving in elected leadership
positions within our association. They will also receive FREE conference
registration for the 2018 AHC conference.
Emerging Leaders will be featured in our
newsletter, Infochange, and recognized at the AHC meeting at the
American Counseling Association Conference.
Interested applicants should submit:
1) The
Emerging Leaders application
2) Your Curriculum vitae
3) Two letters of
reference describing your leadership skills and experiences, and your value of
humanistic practices (letters cannot come from members of the AHC selection
