The American Academy of Pediatric Neuropsychology

The American Academy of Pediatric Neuropsychology (AAPdN) was developed to advocate, educate, and allow for collaboration between individuals and professional specialties with a passion for providing the best for children and adolescents. The American Board of Pediatric Neuropsychology (ABPdN) is designed to develop specific academy-organized competency in pediatric neuropsychology. The AAPdN was established in 1996 and has been continuously active through a re-incorporation in March of 2004. Once an individual passes the ABPdN examination and becomes board certified in pediatric neuropsychology, their names are placed in a public directory of Board Certified providers.

Our mission is to …

• Advocate for the rights and appropriate assessment, education, and treatment of children and adolescents
• Advance training and education in pediatric neuropsychology
• Support examination of competence in pediatric neuropsychology
• Establish collaborative relationships with other professional organizations
