RAPCA
RAPCA was developed through the work of a small group of psychotherapists, counselors, and counselor educators in the Rochester area who have an interest in Carl Rogers and the client-centered/person-centered approach.  The initial group met regularly for several years before inviting other like-minded colleagues in the region to join the community.  The first meeting of the larger group was held on November 13, 2008, and the response was astounding!  There were over 30 professionals in attendance, and others who were interested but unable to be present that evening.  After introductions and a lively conversation, we realized our common desire for professional support and development.  RAPCA has been meeting monthly since that time.  We hope you will join us for future conversations, mutual support, and leaning.
