The Senate Resolution, introduced by Senator Selders, commends the Louisiana Counseling Association (LCA) for its significant contributions to mental health services in the state. It highlights the prevalence of mental disorders among adults in the U.S. and acknowledges the challenges faced by vulnerable populations, such as the homeless and youth in the juvenile justice system. Established in 1968, the LCA serves as a professional organization for various types of counselors, including licensed professional counselors, marriage and family therapists, and school counselors, among others. The resolution emphasizes the LCA's role in promoting professional development, supporting public policy, and enhancing the counseling profession.

Furthermore, the resolution designates April 23, 2025, as Louisiana Counseling Association Day at the state capitol, recognizing the positive impact that LCA members have made in communities across Louisiana. The Senate expresses its appreciation for the dedication and excellence of the LCA in serving the citizens of the state and instructs that a copy of the resolution be sent to the president of the LCA.
