Access provided upon registration on “My Courses” page
The Prescriptive Authority Movement for Psychologists began in Hawai`i in in the mid -1980s and continues in the current 2024 legislative session. Many members of the Hawai`I Psychological Association have supported the movement over the years and legislators from around the state have introduced their own bills and resolutions that would create a path towards Prescribing Psychologists in Hawai`i.
As of 2022, legislation has passed in six states – New Mexico, Louisiana, Illinois, Iowa, Idaho and Colorado – and eleven other states have introduced legislation or plan to do so in 2024-2025. This presentation will highlight the activities in Florida and Hawai`i. How do we change the trajectory for RxP in Hawai`i? Input from legislators, advocacy groups and educators will be presented in an effort to identify ways that HPA members can contribute to successful passage of RxP legislation.
When attended in full, this program offers 1.0 APA CEs for Psychologists.
