American Psychiatric Association
The American Psychiatric Association (APA) is a prominent medical specialty society founded in 1844, representing nearly 40,500 physician members in the U.S. and internationally. The organization focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of mental and emotional illnesses, including substance use disorders. Headquartered in Washington, D.C., the APA's membership spans over 100 countries, reflecting its commitment to diverse patient care. The APA's mission is to promote high-quality care for individuals with mental disorders and their families. It advocates for psychiatrists and their patients, supports psychiatric education through Continuing Medical Education (CME) courses, and promotes research initiatives like the Practice Research Network. The APA publishes essential materials, including the "Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders" (DSM) and hosts an annual meeting for professionals to exchange knowledge in psychiatry.
