The Texas Model for Comprehensive School Counseling Programs is a resource to develop effective and high quality comprehensive school counseling programs that align with Texas statutes and rules governing the work of school counselors. It outlines a process for tailoring school counseling programs to meet the varying needs of students across an array of school districts through implementation of the four components of school counseling programs, Guidance Curriculum, Responsive Services, Individual Planning, and System Support. With this resource, a school counselor will learn to use campus-specific data to identify the unique needs of a campus and design a comprehensive school counseling program to meet those needs. Recognizing the important roles of the entire educational community, the Texas Model for Comprehensive School Counseling Programs provides examples of how parents, teachers, administrators, principals and school counselors can best contribute to implementation of each of the four components of comprehensive school counseling programs. It provides a developmental framework for a school counseling program curriculum that includes activities at each grade level to enhance students¿ educational, career, personal and social development.

A step-by-step model for training peer counselors forms the basis of this trainer's manual and for the accompanying exercises for trainees which are organized into two books for effective skill building. Chapter I of the trainer's manual contains an open letter to the trainer which lists requirements for being effective in training peer counselors. Chapter II looks at the concept of peer counseling and its components, chapter III examines the changing roles of counselors, and chapter IV presents research findings on peer counseling. Chapter V focuses on development of the trainer. Chapter VI discusses the setting up of a peer counseling program, chapter VII reviews the training model and procedures to follow, and chapter VIII presents the training program itself, which is divided into modules designed to cover all eight basic communication skills. Following this chapter are two sets of modules for the two books of activities for trainees, 13 modules for Book 1, The Introductory Program, and 11 modules for Book 2, Applying Peer Helper Skills. Chapter IX describes operationalizing peer counselors/helpers and advanced training, chapter X deals with program evaluation, chapter XI discusses peer counseling in action, and chapter XII provides guidelines for the paraprofessional in human services. Appendixes contain pre- and posttests on the positive values continuum, evaluation forms, other forms and application blanks, and rating sheets. Lists of references and additional readings are included. (NB)
