The purpose of this qualitative study was to understand counseling psychology doctoral trainees' perceptions of social justice training in their academic programs. Participants (N = 66) completed an online social justice survey with open-ended questions. Researchers identified major themes of participants' responses (e.g., promotion of social equality, infusion across training contexts, training opportunities outside of programs, importance of "walking the talk"). Implications, future directions, and limitations of the study are presented. (Contains 1 table.)
