Resources

FPA's Mission
FPA's mission is to provide honest, fair, and thorough forensic evaluations to guide the courts and agencies in understanding and weighing psychological issues in a legal context. We want to be your resource for information on mental health and the law.  Please bookmark this page and return periodically as it continues to grow, and send us your suggestions for the content of this page.

Information for Attorneys and Judges

Most frequently cited Virginia statutes in forensic evaluation cases.

Contact information for jails within our service area for court-appointed cases.

Here are the state hospitals with forensic units in our region of service, and the Community Services Boards.

Information for Students
FPA occasionally partners with graduate students for research and clinical opportunities.  However, at this time we do not have any opportunities for undergraduate students, interns, or volunteers.  If you are interested in a career in forensic clinical psychology, here are some links you might want to visit:
American Psychology-Law Society
Careers in Forensic Psychology
Psi Chi - What is Forensic Psychology?
All-About-Forensic-Psychology

Job Opportunities
At this time, FPA is not hiring any psychologists or support staff and we do not have need of a testing technician. 

However, if an LPC or an LCSW who is also a CSOTP is interested in partnering with us to create specialized sex offender treatment and/or post-divorce couples therapy, we would be glad to discuss the possibilities.
