Grassroots Action Center
Attorneys general in 25 states and the District of Columbia recently joined litigation challenging the Department of Education's RISE final rule and related federal student loan changes.
While the lawsuit broadly addresses the impact of these policies on students and states, we have an opportunity to help the attorneys general better understand the specific impact these changes may have on the Counseling profession, Counseling students, and access to behavioral health care in their states.
We are asking you to contact your corresponding attorney general’s office to:
- Thank them for joining the lawsuit
- Introduce yourself as Counseling professionals, students, or educators in the state
- Share personal experiences and perspectives from the Counseling field
- Help elevate the unique workforce and access-to-care concerns facing the Counseling profession
It is strongly encouraged to personalize your message. Sharing your own experiences as a Counselor, Counseling student, educator, or advocate can help your attorney general better understand how these policies impact the future Counseling workforce and the communities you serve.
