| Abstract: | Over the last 2 decades, counselors have found themselves increasingly pulled to the forefront of an effort to find effective means to confront the challenge of school violence. In this brief opinion piece, the author comments on the contributions being made by the counseling field, exemplified in the 6 articles of the special section, and how these contributions are leading to the creation of proactive approaches that are more effective than the reactive approaches still used by many school systems. |
