Founded to prevent youth addictions, Rock In Prevention continues to support children and adults in making choices to gain successful careers and to live happy lives. Rock In Prevention also associates itself with other organizations pursuing similar goals such as the American School Counselor Association (ASCA).
The ASCA promotes the healthy development of students academically, emotionally, and socially, helping them to achieve success in school and in their careers through support of school counselors. The organization's services to school counselors range from professional development to online resources.
Among other resources, the ASCA provides a searchable database to help counselors support students in achieving expected standards. Known as the ASCA Mindsets & Behaviors for Student Success: K-12 College- and Career-Readiness Standards for Every Student, this resource offers in-depth descriptions of the attitudes, knowledge, and skills students in each grade need for success.
