Public Letters
The Public Letters section of the California Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry (CALACAP) website provides a centralized collection of official correspondence issued by CALACAP to government officials, regulatory agencies, policymakers, and partner organizations. These letters reflect CALACAP’s positions on key issues affecting child and adolescent mental health, including legislative proposals, public policy, workforce development, and access to mental health care in California.
Organized by year, this page serves as a transparent record of CALACAP’s advocacy and communications, allowing members, policymakers, and the public to review past and recent letters related to mental health policy, regulatory actions, and statements of professional support.
Use this page to explore how CALACAP engages with state leaders and stakeholders to advocate for policies that improve mental health care for children, adolescents, and families across California.
