Posted February 12, 2011
on:Janisaw Company would like to congratulate our very own Dr. Scyatta Wallace for becoming appointed as Chair of the American Psychological Association Committee on Psychology and AIDS (COPA). During her one year term as Chair, Dr. Wallace will draw on her expertise to focus on issues related to girls/young women.
The American Psychological Association is a scientific and professional organization that represents psychology in the United States. With 150,000 members, APA is the largest association of psychologists worldwide.
The mission of the Committee on Psychology and AIDS (COPA) is to educate psychologists and society at large on the various and unique roles psychology can contribute to the fight against the HIV/AIDS epidemic; to serve as an oversight committee for APA Office on AIDS activities; and provide guidance and direction for APA HIV/AIDS advocacy activities at federal, state and local levels. Check out an article about her first activity as Chair, a visit to the White House to discuss the new National HIV/AIDS strategy http://www.apa.org/monitor/2011/02/hiv-aids.aspx
