Message from the President

"Servant-leaders are driven to serve first, rather than to lead first, always striving to meet the highest priorities of others."   ~ Robert Greenleaf, 1977

Welcome to the AMCD Website.  It is my pleasure to serve the Association for Multicultural Counseling and Development. The quote above describes my leadership philosophy.  My goal is to be a servant-leader who provides the opportunity for others to shine and be all that they are capable of becoming.  AMCD is supported, organized, and sustained by many members who serve in voluntary roles.  The AMCD governing board is diligent in conducting the business of the organization. Committee members give of their time to review, revise, and retain the professional development experiences of the division.  I am truly in awe of the dedicated individuals who serve AMCD.

AMCD is in the midst of celebrating 40 years of influencing the counseling profession!  This is an exciting recognition of all of those leaders and volunteers who have served the organization. This year AMCD will celebrate our rich history with our past, present, and future membership.  Please encourage others to join in the celebration!
