Addictions Counselor Practice Exam

Which principle emphasizes treating all clients fairly and without prejudice?

Non Discrimination Client Welfare Dual Relationships Rights and Duties

Correct Answer:

Non Discrimination

Explanation:

Non-discrimination is the principle that requires counselors to treat every client with fairness and without prejudice. It means providing services and making decisions based on need and professional judgment, not on personal biases or protected characteristics like race, gender, or disability. This ensures equal access to care and helps maintain trust and engagement in treatment. Client welfare focuses on safety and well-being, dual relationships warn against conflicts of interest, and rights and duties cover mutual obligations and client rights—none explicitly capture the mandate to treat all clients fairly regardless of background in the way nondiscrimination does.
