Welcome to the newly reformatted website of the Northern California Regional Organization of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry (NC-ROCAP), a regional affiliate of the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry. We hope the improved website will serve as a source of helpful information, connection, and communication for our members, as well as for others interested in the mental health of children and adolescents.
NC-ROCAP's membership is primarily composed of 250 Child and Adolescent psychiatrists who reside in Northern California south to Monterey County, north to the Oregon border, west to the Pacific Ocean, and east to Davis. NC-ROCAP’s mission is to help stimulate and advance medical contributions to the knowledge and treatment of psychiatric problems of children and adolescents. Additionally, NC-ROCAP advocates for the mental health of children and adolescents and represent Child and Adolescent psychiatrists of Northern California in national, state and local levels of professional and community organizations.
We have populated the website with announcements of educational activities, our annual conference January 20-22, 2012 at the Intercontinental Clement Hotel on Cannery Row in Monterey, and in the months ahead, we’ll detail dinner talks at local restaurants on specific topics among other professional educational activities.
Also in the months ahead, we plan to post articles and other educational material on various topics of interest on child and adolescent mental health—submissions are encouraged!
Additionally, we will create a Membership Page containing both a membership list with contact information as well as instructions on how to become a member of NC-ROCAP.
Please join me in helping to make the Northern California Regional Organization of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry’s new website a valued communication tool in supporting child and adolescent mental health.
Warm regards,
Thomas J. Brady, M.D.
President
Northern California Regional Organization of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry
