TCA 2020 Conference Goes Virtual

We may not be able to be physically together, but that won't keep TCA from connecting counselors, providing counseling-centered training, and a bit of fun along the way.  Check out the awesome schedule we have planned for you!

We know... we know... you aren't alone if the sound of a virtual event seems boring, but we promise we have designed a schedule that is built to inspire, educate, and innovate our counselor communities.

So, settle in with your computer in a comfy location and get ready for an engaging virtual event.
