The exams also require you to know the ACA code of ethics around relationships, including around working with violent offenders, sex offenders, and mentally ill clients. In some states the laws allow you to have an intimate relationship with clients after a certain amount of years. I encourage you to know what your State's rules are because some states prohibit intimate/sexual relationships for life. Additionally some states have other laws and rules about other subjects like charity and religion.

How can one prepare themselves to advocate for a variety of clients in need?

What are some other issues that might be specific state by state?
