The comprehensive developmental counseling curriculum is described in Chapter 3. A conflict resolution focused program is presented in Chapter 4. In Chapter 5, individual planning is explained as a way to guide the personal; social; educational; and career goals of students. Responsive services are described in Chapter 6 as a way to offer immediate response to students in crisis. Group counseling, another direct responsive services, is discussed in Chapter 7.
