Delegates
The delegates of the Cultural Neuropsychology Council are made up of experienced and dedicated neuropsychologists representing all of the neuropsychology organizations in the U.S. as well as BIPOC, LGBTQ+, and deaf and hard of hearing communities to create "one voice" for neuropsychology. What unites us is a relentless commitment to eliminating racism and elevating equity, diversity, and inclusion in our specialty. Meet them below.
