Abstract	The theories and tenets of multiculturalism and feminism require psychologists to extend awareness, knowledge, and skills for competent practice, research, and teaching. In addition, these theories and tenets challenge us to become social change agents. In the article "Training Counseling Psychologists as Social Justice Agents: Feminist and Multicultural Principles in Action," Goodman, Liang, Helms, Latta, Sparks, and Weintraub have carefully crafted an experience-informed template that will assist training programs in becoming active agents for social justice. This commentary raises questions and challenges that extend collaboration across and within disciplines to achieve a broader platform to support specific social justice agendas. Questions are raised and explored regarding the engagement and retention of student interest in engaging in social justice activism. (Author).
