One valuable resource for counselors is the Florida Counseling for Future Education Handbook. This publication, updated annually, provides a comprehensive reference guide to postsecondary education in Florida. Sections taken directly from the Handbook can be used as handouts at parent meetings, advising sessions, or as supplements to a school’s own curriculum guide. The Handbook is available at http://www.facts.org/, under Counselors and Educators > Advising Manuals.
