Counseling Scholarship & Practice in Educational Communities (CSPEC) is a peer-reviewed journal with a focus on rigorous empirical, conceptual, and applied scholarship pertaining to mental health, wellness, prevention, education, and career activities that occur in and around preK-12 educational settings. We prioritize work that is pursuant of more equitable and just school and social communities through counseling, collaboration, education, advocacy, systemic change, and research. The review board will consider submissions from various disciplines so long as the work is grounded in the focus of the journal. CSPEC is the official journal of the Fredrickson Center for School Counseling Outcome Research and Evaluation (CSCORE) at the University of Massachusetts - Amherst.
