Chair, SCCAP Fellows Committee

Having just taken on the role of Chairperson for the SCCAP Fellows Committee, I would like to thank the outgoing Chair – Sharon Berry, PhD, ABPP – for her service and her assistance in this transition. I also want to acknowledge the important role of the committee members – Joaquin Borrego, PhD and Barney Greenspan, PhD.

SCCAP Fellow status is a valued honor and recognizes outstanding contributions, with national impact, to Psychology overall and to SCCAP specifically. The SCCAP Fellows Committee considers both SCCAP Fellows (already an APA Fellow through another division and applying for SCCAP Fellow status) and Initial Fellows (applying for both APA and SCCAP Fellow status concurrently).  For the 2023 cycle (Fellow Status for 2024) we had exceptionally outstanding and diverse group of candidates, including seven SCCAP Fellows and six Initial Fellows. The committee has completed its review process and forwarded its endorsements to the Membership Committee.

If you are interested in becoming an SCCAP Fellow, you are encouraged to apply!  Applications for the 2024 cycle are not due until December 1, 2023, so you have plenty of time.  For information on requirements, please visit the SCCAP website.
