Forensic counselors specialize in the area of criminal justice counseling and evaluation in both correctional and community-based settings. This forensic discipline provides safe and effective treatment to both civil and criminal offenders. Forensic counselors provide ethical evaluations and therapeutic services related to parole, probation, victim-assistance, law enforcement, and expert evaluation. By improving the lines of communication between the clinical and the justice system, the forensic counselors are able to help protect the public from potentially harmful individuals.

The AFC program provides a means to validate and train those in the mental health community with the desire to use their skills in a courtroom setting. This credential distinguishes candidates as having the elevated skills and abilities necessary to adequately provide courtroom testimony and mental health evaluations.
