This article presents the results of a survey of counselor education departments in the United States concerning the availability of coursework on sex‐fair counseling, the percentage of females and males on counselor education faculties, the amount of training counselor educators had received on sex‐fair counseling techniques, and the use of a handbook on sex equity that was developed by the ACES Commission on Sex Equality Concerns. The article makes recommendations for proactive efforts in the future.
