Events Around the World that Matter to You

PAA is here to support all Albertans.

We realize that events happening around the world affect us here in Alberta – sometimes directly.  This section provides resources and support for PAA members, psychologists in Alberta, and all Albertans regarding global events.

If you need more support: try our referral service to find a psychologist near you or contact your local support line (some numbers at the bottom of the page).
