The goal of the CLD Ambassadors of Recruitment Program is to promote diversity in the school psychology profession through recruitment and outreach efforts to undergraduate and high school students from CLD backgrounds. School psychology career presentations may be given to undergraduate or high school students in psychology, education, or ethnic studies courses. Alternatively, CLD Ambassadors may choose some other outreach activity such as serving as a mentor at the NASP Convention or in the Graduate Student Committee's Diversity and Leadership Mentorship Program, or offering School Psychology Awareness Week Activities that focus on CLD populations.

CLD Ambassadors are encouraged to commit to conducting at least one presentation or outreach activity each year. NASP members interested in becoming CLD Ambassadors should join the CLD Ambassadors Community.
