How is a profession that has evolved for a face-to-face world required to change in a world that is moving towards being digital as a norm?

  *   How can telehealth services support counselors working in interdisciplinary settings with other professionals?

  *   What are the issues and concerns within telehealth delivery services related to equity and access?
  *   In what ways can CSI and CACREP promote equity and access in the provision of counseling services via distance delivery methods?
