NPA
The Nevada Psychiatric Association (NPA) is a professional, non-profit corporation serving psychiatrists in Nevada. It is organized for the purpose of supporting professionalism in the practice of psychiatry and promoting top quality mental health care. NPA fulfills a dual role, serving as a state association which focuses on local issues, and as a district branch of the American Psychiatric Association (APA) linking NPA members with developments in mental health care taking place regionally and nationally. NPA grew out of an earlier regional organization which served psychiatrists in Nevada, Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming. Subsequently, Nevada psychiatrists found that their increasing numbers and professional issues prompted the creation of a distinct statewide organization, and the Nevada Psychiatric Association was born.
