Join us in Charleston!  The CUDCP Board and Program Committee have put together an excellent program for the meeting, with the theme of Revitalizing DCTs to Lead with Resilience. 

We are planning an in-person meeting at the Francis Marion Hotel.  No virtual options provided this year.  Featuring several invited speakers, sessions will focus on taking care of ourselves and each other as DCTs.  The impact of rapid changes in the social and political landscape on clinical training will be also be explored.

Note: The Diversifying Clinical Psychology Poster Session and Networking Event (DCP) will be held virtually in April 2025, dates TBD.  Holding it as a stand-alone program allows us to reach more student participants and have more DCT involvement without affecting their ability to attend the entire MWM.  The virtual DCP Programs have been extremely successful, with participation of over 250 students from all over the US and around the world!  Watch for an upcoming email with details to pass along to students who may be interested.
