Capitalizing on Latinx students' aspirational, linguistic, social, navigational, familial, resistant, perseverant, and spiritual community cultural wealth (CCW) can help school counselors empower Latinx students.

We also examine how school counselors can utilize these eight forms of CCW to promote postsecondary opportunities for Latinx youth.
