Careers in Counseling and Human Services

According to the National Organization for Human Services (NOHS), the counseling and human services profession is dedicated to providing services to individuals and families in need of assistance. The goal of this type of work is to enhance the quality of life for those who are served. Human service professionals perform a variety of roles, including:

  • helper to those who need support
  • coordinator to help people use community resources
  • teacher of daily living skills
  • advocate for those who are unable to advocate for themselves
  • mediator between clients and between clients and agencies
  • caregiver to children, elders, and adults with disabilities  

The U.S. Department of Labor's  (OOH) projects that opportunities for social and human service  professionals are expected to be excellent, particularly for applicants with appropriate postsecondary education. The number of social and human service jobs is projected to grow "faster than average" through 2024 - ranking the occupations among the most rapidly growing with a "bright outlook." Also, many additional job opportunities may arise from the need to replace workers who advance into new positions, retire, or leave the workforce for other reasons.
