Global Visions-Celebrating Diversity, Creating Community

ne of the challenges of the 1990s will be to move more fully toward primary prevention and developmental crisis interventions that will probably always be with us. I hope that our journal will also help us to more fully understand the new paradigms in teaching, learning, research, and development and their implications for theory and practice in the counseling and human development field.

The greatest challenge I see for the next decade and new century is embodied in the theme I have chosen for the year: Global Visions-Celebrating Diversity, Creating Community. It is a very large and inclusive theme that has implications for theory and practice and a vision that will not be achieved in one year. My hope is that, in the publications area as in other areas of our work, we will see meaning in the theme and try to more specifically define and act on it. It requires us to have a vision

beyond our own local or national or professional boundaries; to identify, value, and celebrate our unique characteristics, whatever our race or ethnicity; and to use the strength of diversity to find better ways to solve the complex and difficult problems facing us in our own neighborhoods and communities.

I can think of no part of our profession more able to bring us into community than our newsletters and journals. I am hopeful that the Journal of Counseling & Development, in its new format, will succeed in doing just that. My congratulations to RodGoodyear and Chuck Claiborn, the Media Committee, and W. Mark Hamilton, Director of AACD Publications, for another significant milestone in the history of AACD publications.
