AAO found that merely working in an important field does not establish national importance of the specific endeavor.

AAO agreed the proposed endeavor lacked national importance. The submitted articles addressed the importance of the field generally, not the specific endeavor. Personal statements highlighted general benefits of mental health counseling without corroborating evidence linking the endeavor to broader economic growth.…

AAO agreed the proposed endeavor lacked national importance. The submitted articles addressed the importance of the field generally, not the specific endeavor.
