Which of the following is NOT one of NASP's strategic goals?

The strategic goals of the National Association of School Psychologists (NASP) are designed to promote the role and effectiveness of school psychologists in educational settings. Among these goals is the emphasis on addressing critical shortages of school psychologists, advancing their roles as mental health providers, and developing leadership skills within the profession.

The option that states "Encourage the absence of school psychological services" is clearly contrary to the mission and objectives of NASP. Encouraging a lack of services would undermine the very foundation of the profession, which aims to ensure that students receive necessary psychological and educational support. Therefore, this choice does not align with the strategic goals of NASP, which focus on enhancing the presence and effectiveness of school psychologists in schools to benefit students' mental health and academic success.
