RIGHTS OF PERSONS WITH MENTAL ILLNESS
The Mental Health Care Act 2017 has conferred important rights on the persons with mental illness.
This Act and its spirit must be actively enforced throughout the country. This will need active liaison with the government agencies and creating awareness amongst public.
THE PSYCHOLOGY COUNCIL
Council of Psychologists and allied professionals
We provide a register for qualified psychologists and allied professionals to get recognised and accredited. Depending on the qualification, experience and continuing professional development the psychology professionals will be designated as fellows, members or associate members.
Registration with the council will ensure that the qualification is genuine and that the professional has maintained adequate training.
The Council will organise training workshops/ seminars and conferences. It will also serve to give a voice to the psychology fraternity.
OUR OTHER SERVICES & PROJECTS
There are many other services which we offer. Some of these services are delivered for a fee; we being a not-for-profit organisation the income generated is ploughed back to fund the various activities.
