ALCA on Facebook

The ALCA Facebook page is designed to enhance the association's efforts to communicate effectively with our members and to continue our advocacy for the counseling to the public and our special constituencies. It is also being used to link chapters and divisions with FB pages and increase overall social media presence. It is used for advertising, education, sharing of ACA info, ALCA events, etc.

ALCA Facebook (FB) Guidelines:

• Administrator access to FB page by current year’s Historian, current year’s president, and ALCA Executive Director. Historian and President administrators would change yearly as elections occur.
