At the BC School Counsellors conference last October 2016, one of our members was recognized for a lifetime commitment to advocacy for BC school counsellors.

Congratulations to Connie Eastman for her many years devoted to counselling in BC schools. Connie has served as president and past-president of the BC School Counsellors Association. She remained on the executive after serving in those roles and began the BC Counsellor magazine. Connie was the magazine editor for many years and finally retired from the executive in 2015. Connie continues to work as a school counsellor, and has continued her work as an advocate through her role on numerous other committees at both the local and provincial level. BC School Counsellors are indebted to the work Connie has done, and thank her for her service.
