Which ACA division is dedicated to advocacy and social justice?

• A. Counselors for Social Justice (CSJ)
• B. American College Personnel Association (ACPA)
• C. Military and Government Counseling Association (MCGA)
• D. Association for Adult Development and Aging (AADA)

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is understanding what each ACA division emphasizes, and which one centers on advocating for social justice. Counselors for Social Justice is the division whose name itself signals its mission: it gathers counselors who prioritize equity, anti-oppression, cultural humility, and policy work aimed at systemic change. This division supports advocacy at multiple levels—professional, community, and public policy—and helps practitioners integrate social justice concerns into ethical practice, training, and supervision.

The other groups represent different areas or associations with distinct focuses that aren’t centered on advocacy and social justice within the ACA framework, so they don’t fit as the division dedicated to that mission.
