The National Association of School Psychologists (NASP) represents more than 24,000 school psychologists, graduate students, and related professionals worldwide. As the largest organization of its kind, NASP promotes effective practices that support students' learning, behavior, and mental health, with a vision that all children and youth thrive in school, at home, and throughout life.

Its related charitable organization, the Education and Research Trust (ERT), furthers this mission by funding scholarships, awards, and research that advance the field of school psychology and improve outcomes for children and youth.
