The organization that eventually became the Indiana Psychological Association was actually chartered under the name of The Indiana Association of Clinical Psychology in November of 1937. Nine members have been identified from the group of clinical psychologists who were called to the first meeting by Dr. C.M. Louttit, then director of the clinic at Indiana University. We officially became the Indiana Psychological Association in 1950 partly out of the recommendation from APA that all state associations should have this form of name but also because the association felt a need to represent all applied and non-applied psychologists in the state. The purpose of the Association is to advance psychology as a science, as a profession, and as a means of promoting public welfare.
Membership is open to all psychologists practicing in Indiana.
