Urge your US Senators & Reps to work together to pass bipartisan appropriations bills that protect critical investments in psychology education, research, and behavioral health services. These programs are essential to meeting the growing mental health needs of individuals and families nationwide. Failure to provide adequate funding would fall hardest on vulnerable communities, including people with disabilities, veterans, and rural communities. Act by January 30, 2026! https://buff.ly/7rXqAQH

One in five people are neurodivergent, which means that they have different brains (i.e., ADHD, giftedness, Autism, dyslexia) and ways of interacting with the world. And while there are many different types of schools designed to support neurodivergent learners, supporting neurodivergent students in public school is the baseline of service. Understanding the neurodiversity of our students empowers teachers, administration, and coaches. Register here: https://buff.ly/lBnVoTL
