APAHC fosters the inclusion of strong psychological and behavioral science programs within the practice of medicine and health care, the recognition of psychology as a health care profession, and the infusion of psychological knowledge and expertise into research, treatment, prevention, health promotion, and teaching programs in academic health centers that benefit patients, health care trainees, and the general public.
