Outreach

LAISPS

The Community Relations Committee arranges for individuals from LAISPS to speak at various agencies and mental health facilities.

The Trauma Center is located in the community and provides pro-bono treatment in a primarily Hispanic Area. Non-violent parenting classes are also provided.

LAISPS originated the Soldiers Project, treating returning veterans free of charge. It is now an independent organization with Judith Broder (member) as Chair.

A Student Society is set to begin in the fall made up of candidates and members who have volunteered to mentor graduate students who are interested in psychoanalytic thought and to host monthly meetings to further their learning.

There are two groups of PALS (Professionals Affiliated with LAISPS) who meet monthly to discuss readings and case material.

Finally the community Relations Committee hosts an annual Open House so that prospective students and candidates can learn more about our Institute.
