Since 2014, JCLA has published 125 articles on a range of counseling topics, creating new knowledge and perspectives to further professional and client advocacy, as well as leadership practices among professional counselors. With over 25,000 annual views worldwide, a ranking in the top half of all education journals, a 1.6 (2021) CiteScore, and an average first decision turnaround of 51 days, the journal is well-established among comparable counseling journals which have served the profession for decades. Such accomplishments do not occur in a vacuum, so it is important that we recognize the CSI leadership who have ushered this journal from its infancy. Dr Casey Barrio Minton and Dr Jane Myers, serving President and Executive Director, respectively, first proposed the journal to the CSI Executive Council in 2011. With their guidance and support, CSI contracted with Taylor & Francis to publish the journal, and Dr Barrio Minton was named founding editor. Dr Melissa Luke was subsequently named Associate Editor and would follow Dr Barrio Minton as the second Editor-inChief. Numerous editorial board members, ad hoc reviewers, and authors have contributed their time and talents to JCLA, supplying and reviewing 375 manuscripts to date. We are indebted to them for their service to JCLA and to strengthening the leadership and advocacy scholarship in counseling. Throughout these years since inception, JCLA has focused on issues critical to professional counselors and the counseling profession. A review of the Chi Sigma Iota (n.d. Outstanding Article of the Year Award winners reveal such topics as professional identity, licensure, and accreditation (Lawson, 2016; Woo & Henfield, 2015); professional identity and social justice engagement (Um & Wood, 2022), leadership and advocacy among site supervisors (Storlie et al., 2019); school counselor multicultural and social justice practices (Leibowitz-Nelson et al., 2020); dynamic counselor leadership (McKibben et al., 2017); mentoring future counselor educators (Purgason et al., 2018); and counselor leadership and burnout (Harrichand et al., 2021). Each of these articles address professional concerns and provide guidance for counselors to better serve their clients and students, while advancing the profession. In this current issue, we invited Dr Holly Hartwig Moorhead, CSI Chief Executive Officer, Dr Kelly Duncan, Association for Counselor Education and Supervision (ACES) Executive Director, and Dr Sylvia Fernandez, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Council for the Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP) to share their perspectives on professional counselor identity and the counseling profession, particularly given the recent c","PeriodicalId":37213,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Counselor Leadership and Advocacy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74098461","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
