Abstract
This article discusses the career development and the career counselin g needs of populations who have Limited access to educational and occu pational opportunities. The article reviews some of the Limitations of current theories and interventions and offers recommendations for app lying social cognitive career theory (SCCT; Lent, Brown, & Hackett, 19 94) to populations that are at risk for experiencing employment and ca reer barriers. To illustrate one application of SCCT, a career interve ntion program for adult female offenders is presented.
