The American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry (AACAP) is a national professional medical association focused on supporting the healthy development of children, adolescents, and families. Its membership comprises more than eleven thousand professionals, and it provides resources, expertise, and advocacy to advance the field of child and adolescent psychiatry and to improve mental health care for young people. The organization is based in Washington, DC, and operates as a non-profit entity. Within the non-profit health sector, AACAP positions itself as a catalyst for education, standards, and policy dialogue that affect pediatric mental health. Its activities serve clinicians, researchers, and related organizations involved in child and adolescent psychiatry, as well as the broader pediatric health community, with the ultimate aim of benefiting children, adolescents, and their families. In 2021, AACAP participated in a national collaborative with peers to address child and adolescent mental health alongside the American Academy of Pediatrics and the Children’s Hospital Association.
