The Commonwealth of Virginia has excellent colleges and universities, including the University of Virginia and Virginia Tech University, which both have clinical science programs accredited by the Psychological Clinical Science Accreditation System (PCSAS). As Executive Director of PCSAS, I know of the excellence of these programs, and that graduates from these programs become outstanding clinical psychologists, who go on to make significant contributions that improve mental health in the Commonwealth and throughout this country. Recognizing PCSAS accreditation at this time will help retain this outstanding talent in the Commonwealth of Virginia.
