About Us

HISTORY

KAPC started in 1990. It grew out of a sponsored counsellor training programme and was formed because a specific need for providing professional support for counsellors was identified. KAPC responded to the demand for all kinds of counselling services. We grew exponentially and now provide the full range of services to promote professional counselling. Many of our first activities were research projects that focused on providing counselling services and training. We also concentrated on young people and their particular needs.

Governance

KAPC is a registered Non-Governmental Organisation. It is governed in accordance with its constitution. The most powerful component in the constitution is the assembly of members, which normally meets once a year during the annual general meeting. The annual general meeting elects the board, which has a direct impact on the way KAPC runs. It helps define policy and influences the formation of annual workplans. Routine administration is controlled through the Executive Director’s Committee, which attends to day-to-day operational issues.
