The Dayton Area Psychological Association (DAPA) is a nonprofit corporation incorporated in the State of Ohio.
The purpose of this Association is to support the study and practice of psychology, so as to promote human welfare in the Dayton Area. The association serves as a forum for the exchange of information and ideas. It provides a means of continuing education in the profession of psychology and encourages ethical standards of practice. We would love to see you at our next workshop!
The DAPA board is a group of psychologists who volunteer their time to serve other psychologists in the Miami Valley. We meet monthly and are always looking for new members!
Check out the calendar for details about our next workshop and board meeting.
