Counselor educators are expected to conduct high quality research that results in publication and furthers the evidence-base for counseling. This workshop provides a step by step guide proven successful in developing a model university-school district partnership that allows counselor educators to conduct high-quality outcome research while providing service-learning opportunities for counseling interns to work with diverse and historically underserved populations of children. Summaries of over 30 studies resulting from this model partnership will be presented.
