- UCLA in LA

Centers and programs within the department of Psychology are closely linked to academic pursuits. While some are departmentally funded and supported, others have grown out of individual faculty members' desire to share their work in broader ways. Many of our centers and programs are community partnerships in support of the 'UCLA in LA' effort.
