4) To exchange knowledge and training resources in counseling\/psychotherapy with professionals from other countries (especially, in the ASEAN countries) which will contribute to the support and cooperation in the collaboration between other Christian counseling associations in other countries, in preparation for the future establishment of an educational institute specializing in this field.<\/span><\/p>\n

5) To support Christian counselors in teaching, researching, and publishing materials that are relevant to the counseling context in Thailand.<\/span><\/p>\n

6) To unify the dissemination of information of Christian counseling in Thailand.<\/span><\/p>\n

7) To support and coordinate with various government agencies and non-government organizations in mental health services which will strengthen mental health for the Thai population.<\/span><\/p>\n
