What was the former name of the ALGBTIC?

Association for Transgender Issues in Counseling
Association for Gay, Lesbian, and Bisexual Issues in Counseling
National Association for LGBTQ+ Counseling
American Association for Gender Diversity

The correct answer is: Association for Gay, Lesbian, and Bisexual Issues in Counseling

The former name of the ALGBTIC, which stands for the Association for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Issues in Counseling, was the Association for Gay, Lesbian, and Bisexual Issues in Counseling. This name reflects the organization's initial focus on the unique challenges and concerns faced by gay, lesbian, and bisexual individuals within the counseling profession. Over time, as awareness and understanding of gender and sexual diversity expanded, the organization updated its name to be more inclusive of transgender individuals and other aspects of sexual orientation and gender identity, leading to its current title. Understanding the evolution of the organization's name can help counselors recognize the broader context of LGBTQ+ issues in their practice and the importance of inclusivity in their work. The other choices represent different organizations or concepts not directly related to the ALGBTIC’s historical naming.
