Welcome to the New England Council of Child &
Adolescent Psychiatry's website (NECCAP). The NECCAP is the oldest regional arm of the American Academy of Child &
Adolescent Psychiatry (AACAP) with close to 600 members. THIS SITE IS SPECIFICALLY FOR DUES PAYMENTS, AD PAYMENTS AND
REGISTRATION FOR PROGRAMS.
The NECCAP was formed in 1962 with a mandate to foster and promote by all proper and
legitimate agencies and means, study, research, clinical application of and education in the field of child and adolescent
psychiatry and child and adolescent development; to publish and distribute articles, periodicals, pamphlets and books relative
to any of the foregoing purposes. To provide a scientific forum for child psychiatrists; to serve as a focus for recruitment
and supporting mechanism for practitioners; and to develop a group sensitive to and knowledgeable about the emotional needs
of children and hence equipped to serve as an advocate for children in local and governmental activities.
Like
our former award-winning Bulletin, it is our hope for this website to provide our membership with information about activities
of the Council, including the excellent scientific programs that will be presented throughout the year and a place where membership
may "meet" to share information and ideas. More importantly it will be a place where members may read about the
business of the Council and take initiative to join in various meetings that are being held regarding child and adolescent
psychiatry. While the work of the Board is an effort to represent the needs of child and adolescent psychiatrists throughout
New England, it is important for our membership to be aware of the many opportunities that are available for them to lend
their own voice personally to the issues that directly affect our field. This website will be a place where you will be able
to find that information so you may take action as well.
Your feedback is important to us, please feel free to
contact us at any time with your suggestions and thoughts. Just use the "contact us" icon and the office will see
that your information is directed to the proper person to take care of your question. Thank you!
