Program videos should be designed to raise awareness about the counseling program at your university– like a commercial where you identify your program highlights (e.g., faculty expertise, unique training approach, CACREP accreditation) to market the program and reach out to prospective students. Of utmost important, videos should address the question, “What makes counseling different than other helping professions?” The contest is open to both faculty members and students and the first place prize is a<span class=apple-converted-space> </span><b>$500 AMAZON GIFT CARD</b>. The contest will open February 1<sup>st</sup><span class=apple-converted-space> </span>and video submissions will be accepted through February 27, 2015.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p style='mso-margin-top-alt:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:12.0pt;margin-left:0in;line-height:15.8pt;orphans: auto;text-align:start;widows: auto;-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;word-spacing:0px'><span style='font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#215968'>If video production isn’t your thing, you can still advocate for your counseling program in other ways. CACREP encourages faculty members, students, and graduates to examine their own counseling program and spend some time advocating for issues “close to home” within the program. This can be done by individuals or in groups. Identify a need within your counseling program and develop an action plan to address the need or advocate for change. A brief list of program advocacy ideas will be provided below to help get the conversation started.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><i><span style='font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#444444;background:white'>Resources:<span class=apple-converted-space> </span></span></i></b><b><i><span style='font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#215968;background:white'><a href="http://www.cacrep.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/1.Monday_Video-Contest-Rules-and-Entry-Form_CACREP-Advocacy-Week.pdf"><span style='color:#215968;text-decoration:none'>Video Contest Rules and Entry Form</span></a>,<span class=apple-converted-space> </span><a href="http://www.cacrep.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/2.Monday_Program-Advocacy-Ideas_CACREP-Advocacy-Week.pdf"><span style='color:#215968;text-decoration:none'>Advocacy Ideas for Programs</span></a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IZnfZGKAQkM"><span style='color:#215968;text-decoration:none'>CACREP Video Demo</span></a></span></i></b><span style='color:#215968;background:white'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IZnfZGKAQkM"><span style='color:windowtext;text-decoration:none'><img border=0 width=455 height=321 id="Picture_x0020_5" src="cid:image002.png@01D04F59.FCF78D30"></span></a><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Thanks,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Tyler<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>Tyler M.
