Welcome to the California Association of School
Psychologists Media Page.
School psychologists can be cited as experts on a number of
different school-related topics. They often act as the link between mental
health services and schools, understanding how both systems work.

specific topic, please contact Heidi Holmblad, CASP director of communications,
