About Us

Beginning in 1975, the Delaware County Association of School Psychologists (DCASP) was formed as a nonprofit, professional organization. We have approximately 121 active members. Our membership is primarily composed of school psychologists. However, our membership also includes clinical psychologists, school counselors, social workers, and professionals within related fields.

Mission Statement

Our mission is to provide evidence-based educational workshops for psychologists and other professionals within Delaware County. Through delivering high quality workshops, we strive to improve psychological services for stakeholders within our schools and communities.

Current Programs and Services Provided

DCASP sponsors five professional development trainings each year. Workshops are held at the Delaware County Intermediate Unit in Morton, PA. Our three-hour workshops offer Pennsylvania Department of Education (PDE) Act 48 credits and state-approved Continuing Education Units (CEU). These credits can be used to maintain state certification and licensure requirements. As part of this process, we collect evaluation data and submit these findings to the state. Finally, we provide our presenters with information regarding participant feedback related to the workshop’s learning objectives.
