Florida Psychological Association

What Florida Psychological Association does

The Florida Psychological Association (FPA) is a private, member-funded professional association serving licensed psychologists across the state of Florida. Founded to serve as the unified voice of the profession, FPA provides advocacy representation before Florida regulatory bodies including the Board of Psychology and the Florida Department of Health, continuing education (CE) programming for licensure maintenance, ethics and practice consultation, disaster response resources, and a statewide network of regional chapters covering all 67 Florida counties. Membership tiers include graduate students (FPAGS), early career psychologists (ECP), and full members, with supporting sub-communities for ECPs, committees, and online groups.

FPA's service portfolio includes a public Find a Psychologist directory searchable by county and specialty, live and on-demand CE courses, the Florida Psychologist Magazine, a Career Center job board, member-only attorney and business consultations, and a member benefits program incorporating third-party partner discounts such as the TheraClosure Professional Will service. Operations are delivered through a Glueup-powered membership platform with an accompanying FPA mobile application, email communications, and regional chapter events. Distribution is direct via the Tallahassee central office, regional chapters, and self-serve digital channels.

FPA's business model is recurring-dues driven, supplemented by CE course fees, event registration revenue, and partner referral/affiliate arrangements. Go-to-market combines community-led engagement through chapters and committees, event-driven programming (Office Hours, First-Fridays Coffee and Cases, CE webinars), and direct outreach via the website, social media, and email. There is no disclosed parent company, private equity sponsor, or public listing; the organization is governed by a Board of Directors and operates as an independent professional membership body.
