Example Response (Response Needs to be writen just like the response below No copying)
RISE Feedback:
REFLECT: I concur with “Action plans should reflect the type of services that are needed and have an idea of the expected outcome of the services” because it is in line with Hatch and Hartline’s intentional school counseling guidelines in regards to determining students needs.
INQUIRE: Can you further explain what “closing-the-gap action plans” are?
SUGGEST: I encourage you to revisit Hatch and Hartline’s MTMDSS tier interventions in order to add a citation that would illustrate your example on bullying prevention efforts.
ELEVATE: What if you re-purposed “For example, after a needs assessment, the school is having problems with bullying” as “Following Trish Hatch’s MTMDSS tier based interventions, if the school is having problems with bullying, after a needs assessment, we could… citation…” for a more weighted argument?

As a school counselor, how may you develop cultural competency and demonstrate skill in helping pupils respect and understand alternative points of view to accept, respect, and value differences, such as cultural diversity and family configuration patterns?
“Pisano (2017) reported that when spouses struggle with deployment, children are likely to struggle as well, exhibiting symptoms of stress and anxiety.” (Plotts, 2020). The deployment of a parent to military service can have a significant impact on children’s emotional, social, and academic well-being. School counselors play a vital role in supporting these children and families during this challenging time. Developing cultural competency and demonstrating skills in helping students with deployed parents are crucial aspects of a school counselor’s role. School counselors can provide valuable support to children and families affected by military deployment by:
• Educating themselves about the impact of deployment on children by understanding the unique challenges faced by military families and the potential impact of deployment on children’s emotional and social development
• Building relationships with military families by establishing open and respectful communication with families to gain their trust and understand their needs.
• Providing individual counseling to children struggling with the emotional and social effects of parental deployment
• Facilitating group counseling for children with deployed parents to provide a safe space for them to share their experiences and receive mutual support
• Collaborating with school staff to identify and address any academic or behavioral challenges that may arise for students with deployed parents
• Connecting families with community resources such as support groups and counseling services tailored to the needs of military families.

As a School Counselor, how may you develop cultural competency and demonstrate skill in helping pupils to respect and understand alternative points of view to accept, respect, and value differences, such as cultural diversity and family configuration patterns?
I have selected to investigate Military deployment for this discussion post as I am a resident of San Diego where there is a large population of military families in the county, and military deployment can be quite common for families.
Developing cultural competency and fostering an appreciation for diverse perspectives, including those related to military deployment, is an important part of a counselors professional development. Particularly for counselors who work with students who have parents that work abroad (whether for the military or other reasons that temporarily divides families). As was stated in the reading, School Psychologist as Counselor, (Plotts & Lasser, 2020), “after deployment, many parents experience reintegration difficulties, including marital discord and mental health struggles. Suicide rates among veterans are a major concern, with more troops dying from suicide than are killed in action. Children of service members are 2.5 times as likely to develop psychological problems, and 44% of these children have ‘moderate to difficult emotional or behavioral difficulties.”
One way to develop cultural competence for a counselor is to attend workshops, seminars, or training sessions focused on military cultural competence to gain insights into the distinctive aspects of military life, deployment-related stressors, and the impact on students’ academic and emotional well-being. Counselors can also familiarize themselves with local resources and support networks available for military families.
To help students understand alternative points of view regarding military deployment, counselors can hold small group sessions where students feel safe, and comfortable discussing their own experiences, feelings, and concerns regarding deployment. Counselors can also collaborate with teachers to provide inclusive curricula that recognizes and celebrates families affected by military service. By promoting cultural competence and empathy in the school environment, counselors can help create a more supportive, tolerant and compassionate school community for all students.
