Welcome to Georgia College Counseling Association (GCCA). I hope you are excited to learn more about our compassionate, caring community of college and university counselors and private practice colleagues. Take time to learn about our resources, connect to colleagues, learn about our represented regions, and most importantly, plan to attend our 2026 GCCA Conference at the end of January. Take time to relax, breathe, and connect with old and new friends on the beach! Our theme, “Charting the Course: Counseling in the Current World” reminds all we are instrumental in changing lives.

With your membership, which is renewed annually as part of the conference registration fee, you have access to the GCCA listserv, regional CE workshops, and past CE workshop slides. If you are not able to attend the annual conference, you can join for a fee of $50.

I am excited to serve you and the GCCA Council this year and look forward to seeing you at the annual conference January 28-30, 2026 at the King and Prince Resort on St. Simon’s Island. Every year it is gratifying to connect with old friends, make new friends, and meet new colleagues. Please join us at GCCA! Respectfully, Cheri Mattox-Carroll
