The CPA Committee on Ethics (CoE) has identified the need for an update, clarification, and expansion of the Guidelines for Non-Discriminatory Practice (1990, Updated 2001, 2017) and has approved the development of Ethical Guidelines for Inclusivity and Non-Discrimination in Psychology. Our goals with this project are to provide clarification of the issues and to guide psychologists towards best practices. In keeping with our Code, these revised guidelines will be aspirational in nature rather than prescriptive or proscriptive
As Coordinator of this endeavour, Dr. Cannie Stark invites all CPA Members to collaborate with the CoE on this endeavour to develop ethical guidelines for inclusivity and non-discrimination in psychology. Click here for more information
