American Psychological Association of Public Education Line

An integral component of APA’s public education campaign is a large grassroots network of psychologists spanning across the U.S., Canada and the U.S. territories. The Public Education Campaign Network (PEC) Network has always been the foundation of the campaign, providing incredible support to campaign activities on the local level through community outreach events and media interviews. Psychologists’ efforts and input are instrumental in the success of the campaign and in educating the public about the value of psychology. The face-to-face connections between psychologists and members of their communities increases awareness about practicing psychologists and the many ways psychologists help people develop skills and implement strategies for a healthier life.
