CAPIC/MHSA Intern Stipend Program
Online Stipend Program Application
Applications for the 2009-10 stipends are no longer being accepted. The Final Deadline was January 29, 2010. CAPIC will be notifying all applicants in March.
CAPIC/MHSA Psychology Intern Stipend Program Overview
CAPIC was awarded a 3-year contract for over $2.6 million from the California Department of Mental Health in September 2008 to develop educational materials that would help train psychologists in the Resiliency-Recovery theoretic approach to treating people with chronic mental health problems, and to provide stipends to students doing internships in publically supported mental health agencies in California.
The intent of these funds is to increase the number of California psychologists committed to working with people served by the California public mental health system, and to increase the training of psychologists in the use of the Resiliency-Recovery approach endorsed by the CA/DMH.
On Sept. 9, 2009 stipend checks for 2008-09 psychology interns were mailed to the 39 psychologists selected from a larger pool of applicants to receive this award. The funds were delayed due to the 2009 California budget crisis.
