CHAPTER NOTEBOOK

2006-07 chapter notebook (a packet of Psi Chi forms for chapter use) should have arrived at your chapter by now. If not, email

One of the main concerns of Psi Chi chapters from year to year is chapter funding. Chapters look for
funding assistance for such things as conference attendance, speaker funding, chapter programming, and scholarships. For information about existing funding sources and some ideas for chapter funding in general, go here:

contact a local high school to see if your chapter can provide assistance such as speaking about psychology, presenting activities, or inviting high school classes to research conferences for a campus visit. More resources and information about Teachers of Psychology in Secondary Schools (TOPSS) can be found here:
