At Old Westbury, we take pride in our origins being centered in creating a community that has and continues to welcome non-traditional students of all ages, ethnic and racial groups, as well as various walks of life; resulting in one of the most diverse student bodies in the nation. The M.S. in Mental Health Counseling Program is firmly committed to issues pertaining to multicultural diversity and seeks faculty members, staff, and students who reflect such diversity, including, but not limited to, race, ethnicity, gender, age, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, religious/spiritual orientation, disability status, and national origin. Issues of human diversity are integrated throughout the entire curriculum and program in that students are actively exposed to numerous opportunities to develop competence in addressing issues pertaining to cultural and identity group membership with various populations. The program also seeks to create a space for growth, collaboration, and collegiality among faculty, staff, and students around respecting and affirming various dimensions of cultural diversity.
