Good news! California Psychological Association Reactivates Immigration Task Force!

As we know, the experience of millions of immigrants – those documented and those undocumented – is a major mental health issue in California. Therefore, it is my pleasure to announce, as part of my Presidential initiative on serving and protecting vulnerable children, adults and families, the revival of CPA’s Immigration Task Force (ITF). The ITF will be chaired by Dr. German Cadenas, currently a post-doc at UC Berkeley. Dr. Cadenas has extensive experience in the area of immigration psychology, and will announce the members of his team. The charge of this task force involves assembling resources for psychologists working with immigrant persons and families, and making recommendations for psychologists working with this population.
