Abstract

To consider the experiences of school counselors who served children of incarcerated parents (CIP) in a single school district in a southeastern state, we used an instrumental case study design. Participants sought to meet the needs of CIP using skills inherent in their professional roles; however, they experienced barriers navigating professional roles and meeting the needs of CIP. We provide implications for school counselors and recommendations for future research.
