- About Us
About NJPANJPA has been successfully serving its members for over 80 years by protecting, promoting, and enhancing the profession of psychology. NJPA is also an indispensable network of resources for the public and media and an influential presence helping shape mental health policies in New Jersey. Our Mission NJPA does not support or endorse any non-licensed individual holding him/herself as a licensed psychologist. NJPA defers to the New Jersey Board of Psychological Examiners on matters related to licensure and regulation of psychologists in New Jersey. Advocacy NJPA is committed to strengthening our political outreach and advocating for the interests of NJ psychologists and mental health issues that are important to the public. Over the years, our advocacy has taken many forms. Through our Committee on Legislative Affairs (COLA) and our Governmental Affairs Agent (GAA), NJPA has been instrumental in maintaining standards of psychology practice in NJ, protecting patients rights, and supporting public policy. NJPA also monitors State Rules and Laws that regulate the profession, and maintains a liaison with the NJ Board of Psychological Examiners so we are always informed about any changes that may affect our members. As an affiliate of APA, NJPA is also involved in federal advocacy initiatives and regularly lobbies for federal issues that affect psychology. read more... NJPA Executive Board
