In recent years, a number of listserves have been developed to facilitate discussion among counseling professionals. Listserves are electronic mailing lists of people in which members post e-mail messages to which other members may respond. Listed below are some of the listserves which may be of interest to counselors in training. If you choose to join a listserve, you may find that you receive a large number of listserve-related e-mails each day. At any point in time, you may also choose to "unsubscribe" or terminate your participation in the listserve. Please review information about the listserve prior to making a decision to subscribe.
