Practice Council

Vision & Mission 

To expand the visibility, reach and impact of community psychology practice through opportunities for connection, support and professional development in the Society for Community Research and Action, academic community research and action graduate programs, other professional organizations and communities. The Practice Council convenes to support community psychology practice. We do that by helping to:

• define what it means by practice,

• designate the required skills and competencies,

• demonstrate effectiveness of our work,

• increase opportunities to be seen as legitimate and acknowledged,

• increase the visibility of CP practice, and

• provide individual and institutional support.
