Wyoming will begin issuing privileges on Monday, August 31, 2026, at 11:00 a.m. ET. With the upcoming issuance of privileges, eligible Licensed Professional Counselors will be able to practice in Wyoming using their compact privilege, reducing barriers to care and improving continuity of services for clients who live, work, or relocate across state boundaries. This step advances the Compact’s mission to increase access to high-quality counseling services while maintaining strong public protection standards.
Wyoming joins Arizona, Arkansas, Georgia, Indiana, Louisiana, Minnesota, and Ohio as the eighth state to operationalize the Compact by issuing privileges. Additional member jurisdictions are actively working toward implementation, with more expected to begin issuing privileges in the coming months.
Counselors from Arizona, Arkansas, Georgia, Indiana, Louisiana, Minnesota, and Ohio interested in practicing in Wyoming under the Compact, and Wyoming Counselors interested in practicing in Arizona, Arkansas, Georgia, Indiana, Louisiana, Minnesota, and Ohio, can visit https://counselingcompact.gov for more information and the application link.
