The Minnesota School Counselors Association held their annual Day on the Hill on March 15 at the state capital in St. Paul. Students and faculty in the Department of Educational Psychology’s counseling and student personnel psychology (CSPP) program met with legislators and senators to promote the important work that school counselors do for our students and school communities.
Drs. Carolyn Berger and Marguerite Ohrtman accompanied the students. The group met with several legislators, including Representative Ilhan Omar, who represents the Minneapolis community and the University of Minnesota.
CSPP students Gabriella Riley, Becky Mendoza, and Melinda Vogel met with Rep. Karen Clark who represents South Minneapolis. She offered to sign on as an author of Support our Students Bill after the meeting.
