Early Career Interest Group

Written by Ashlee Lien and Ben Graham

The SCRA Early Career Interest Group is launching several new initiatives this year, and we invite all early career community psychologists and graduate students considering their early careers to join our monthly call as we move forward in supporting early career professionals.

Starting this month, the ECIG will meet on the last Wednesday of every month at 1pm PST/4pm EST. The mission of the ECIG is “to enhance the sense of community and a shared identity among early career members through advocacy, engagement, and the provision of resources.” Our current activities include launching our newly updated website, hosting our first professional development webinar, and to collaborate on a project to document the work settings and professional trajectories of early career community psychologists.

We invite you to join us, and look forward to hearing your thoughts and ideas! Please join us for our next monthly call by calling into the SCRA conference line. Also, you can join the ECIG listserv by following three easy steps:
