Member-At-Large: Membership and Public Interest

Welcome new 2023 members!! A huge thanks to our ambassadors who have been working hard to spread the word about the many SCCAP benefits. As many of you are already aware, they have relaunched the official SCCAP Instagram account where you can find original content related to mental health, evidence-based practice, webinars, and SCCAP activities. Find us on Instagram @SCCAP53 or use the QR code shared on this page.

Our SIGs have been busy:

• I’m excited to welcome back our Emerging Adult SIG thanks the new leadership team chaired by Chelsea VanderWoude. A heartfelt thanks to Tom McMahon and Amanda Zayde for their tireless championing this group. We are so grateful!
• Many of our mid-career folks expressed interest in opportunities for consultation. A number of our SIGs offer monthly virtual consultation and lunch and learn opportunities. For example, one benefit of the Clinical Child and Adolescent Practitioner SIG led by Jill Thurber is clinical consultation. Please visit this page to learn more.
• Our Bilingual Psychologists SIG regularly hosts virtual networking events and has an active listserv. If you are a bilingual practitioner, consider reaching out. Please visit this page to learn more.
• The Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health SIG hosted an informational membership meeting on March 10. Ways to get involved and upcoming webinars and meeting topics were discussed. If you missed this meeting and would like to learn more about the Infant and Early Childhood SIG, please visit this page.
• I’d also like to take this opportunity to thank Jarrod Leffler and Aaron Vaughn, the outgoing Chairs of the Acute, Intensive, Residential Services (AIRS) SIG for their leadership and passion for this important group. We are looking forward to the great things Alysha Thompson, Elisabeth Frazer and the new executive board members will continue to do. Please visit this page for more information.

Early- and mid-Career members- we still want to hear from you. Please email me at cc0077@nemours.org or post right to the listserv if you have ideas for ways, we can better serve you.

Finally, if you haven’t yet renewed, there is still time to sign up and continue enjoying our listserv, journals, and SIG programming. Please visit our renewal page or use the QR code on this page to renew directly on our website.

See you in DC in August!!
