Bylaws
The Military and Government Counseling Association Bylaws were approved by unanimous vote of the ACA Governing Council on March 10, 2015 in Orlando, Florida. The current mission statement reads:
“The association is formed to encourage and deliver meaningful guidance, counseling, and educational programs to all members of the Armed Services, their family members, and civilian employees of State and Federal Governmental Agencies. Encourage development of professional monographs and convention/conference presentations by any of these agencies. Develop and promote the highest standards of professional conduct among counselors and educators working with Armed Services personnel and veterans. Establish, promote, and maintain improved communication with the non military community;
and conduct and foster programs to enhance individual human development and increase recognition of humanistic values and goals within State and Federal Agencies.”
