The APA-USNC International Mentoring Program is jointly sponsored by the APA Office of International Affairs and the U.S. National Committee for Psychological Science, and funded by the National Science Foundation. The goal of this program is to support U.S. psychologists and psychology students in attending the 30th International Congress of Psychology (ICP 2012) in Cape Town, South Africa, July 22-27, 2012.
