Two new CPA Sections – Black Psychology and Psychology Careers and Professionals

The CPA is excited to announce the that two new sections have received Board approval. The Section on Black Psychology, led by founding Chairs Kafui Sawyer and Anita Shaw, sees its mission as promoting and advancing practitioners, educators, students, and scientists of psychology who identify as Black and who are concerned about psychology-related issues that impact Black people. The purpose of the Psychology Careers and Professionals Section, led by founding Chair Shahnaz Winer, is to create a professional home and area within the CPA for individuals who have pursued careers in the field of psychology that are outside of the academic and healthcare delivery settings, while also providing mentorship to CPA students and members interested in pursuing and learning more about the various career options available to psychology graduates.
