An Act authorizing the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania to join the Counseling Compact; and providing for the form of the compact.

Maddy summaryThis bill authorizes Pennsylvania to join the Counseling Compact, a national agreement designed to allow licensed professional counselors to practice across state lines without needing separate licenses in each state. Under the compact, a counselor's ability to work in another member state would depend on their primary home state license, while still maintaining the authority of each state to regulate practice and protect public safety. The legislation includes specific provisions to share information about disciplinary actions and investigations among states, supports military families by easing licensure barriers for spouses, and promotes the use of telehealth services. By adopting this compact, Pennsylvania aims to increase access to counseling services and streamline the regulatory process for counselors working in multiple jurisdictions.
