NASP is coordinating a virtual Advocacy Action Week, July 20–24, 2020 with the purpose of increasing awareness of school psychology among federal policymakers and staffers through a multimedia digital advocacy campaign. Mental health for children has been at the forefront of national conversations in promoting social justice and improving our country's system of mental health. We must ensure that school psychologists are a part of the solution—to do so, we need your help! Commit to Participate!
