      <title>Professional Development and Education Committee (06/01/2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Join the WMHCA Professional Development and Education Committee!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Are you passionate about shaping the future of ethical, liberative, and culturally responsive clinical practice? The &lt;strong&gt;Professional Development and Education Committee (PDEC)&lt;/strong&gt; invites all WMHCA members to join us in advancing high-quality and accessible continuing education presentations rooted in decolonized principles and cultural humility.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Our mission is to increase competency, challenge oppressive systems, and support counselors in reducing suffering through thoughtful and timely educational opportunities. We actively seek to uplift diverse voices and perspectives—both in our committee and through the presenters we recruit.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0px !important;"&gt;As a member of the committee, you’ll help:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul style="margin-top: 0px !important;"&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Vet and select workshop presenters and topics&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Plan and host continuing education events&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Ensure Washington State CE requirements are provided with clarity to WMHCA members&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Contribute to the development of impactful educational curricula for Washington state counselors&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Whether you’re curious about our work or ready to get involved, we’d love to have you join a meeting and explore how you can contribute.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
