The Coalition for the Advancement and Application of Psychological Science (CAAPS) works to promote science to understand, reduce, and prevent the burden of mental illness. 

​

We work collaboratively to support the development and application of clinical science that can more effectively meet the needs of patients, communities, and the health care system.

​

In 2018, we brought together many different organizations that work on mental health issues to jointly create this statement to help people choose the mental health treatment that's right for them.
