Resources to Protect Counselors’ Practice, Health, and Well-Being

NBCC and Affiliates values and respects the investment that Counselors, Counselor Educators, and Counseling students make in their clients and communities. Affinity programs offered by NBCC and Affiliates are intended to support counselors across their career trajectory. In addition to offering programs individually, NBCC also partners with the Association for Counselor Education and Supervision (ACES) and Chi Sigma Iota (CSI) to offer affinity programs aligned with the mission and commitment to counselors of the organizations. As an NCC, CCE credential holder, ACES member, or CSI member, there are a variety of programs available to support you and your work!

To support your professional practice and personal well-being, we partner with companies and firms to develop a robust affinity program that provides services and resources for health, wellness, financial support, and daily life. These partnerships make these services, resources, and tools available to those within our community at special rates. These affinity program offerings are possible because of the size and strength of the National Certified Counselor community, and the included programs offer competitive rates and are carefully curated to help you quickly identify tools and resources that meet your needs. Counselors can access expanded coverage options for lower costs compared to other insurance plans.
