The Hand of Professional School Counseling Meets the Glove of Restorative Practices: A Call to the Profession.

To introduce restorative practices (RP) to the school counseling literature, the authors explicate the hand in glove fit between the RP model for schools and school counselor identity and scope of practice. Drawing from the American School Counselor Association's (ASCA) National Model, ASCA's Ethical Standards for School Counselors, multitiered systems of support (MTSS), and the school counseling literature, the authors make the case for the profession of school counseling to take up RP and integrate the model into school counseling research, theory, and practice.
