A descriptive study was implemented to determine how urban school counselors adhere to the Gysbers and Henderson (2000) and Myrick (1993) models of school counseling programs. One hundred and two counselors in six urban centers (New York; Newark, NJ; Philadelphia; Washington, DC; Trenton, NJ," and Baltimore) completed the Urban School Counselor Questionnaire. The results indicated that urban school counselors participate in typical school counseling activities (e.g., counseling, consulting, coordinating) as prescribed by Gysbers and Henderson and Myrick. The participants in this study (i.e., urban school counselors) perceived low family functioning and academic achievement among the most prevalent issues in urban schools.
