About the Illinois School Psychology Internship Consortium (ISPIC)
ISPIC was developed in 2002 as a collaborative endeavor of the four universities
training doctoral-level school psychologists in Illinois (Illinois State University,
Loyola University Chicago, National Louis University, & Northern Illinois
University) to address the need for accredited internship opportunities and for more
school psychologists in Illinois. This past year The Chicago School of
Professional Psychology became a sponsoring institution as well. We have trained
193 interns and currently have our largest cohort to date. In these tough economic
times, we have been offering relatively low cost continuing professional
development opportunities to meet the expressed training needs of practitioners
and to fund basic operating expenses of the consortium. Thank you for being part
of our learning community and we look forward to an on-going dialogue about
programming to meet the educational and social-emotional needs of Illinois
children, adolescents, and families.

ISPIC would like to formally acknowledge the contribution of our
keynote speaker. Adena B. Meyers, Ph.D., is professor of psychology
and member of the school psychology graduate program faculty at
Illinois State University. She received her doctorate in clinicalcommunity psychology from the University of Illinois at UrbanaChampaign, and is a licensed clinical psychologist. She is interested in
contextual influences on child and adolescent development, with an
emphasis on family-, school-, and community-based interventions
designed to promote children’s social and emotional functioning. She
has served as a consultant to the Collaborative for Academic, Social, and
Emotional Learning (CASEL), and as a supervisor of mental health
consultants working in Head Start preschool settings. She also
supervises clinicians providing mental health services to students in
elementary and secondary schools. Her publications have focused on
school-based consultation; adolescent pregnancy, parenthood, and
sexual development; school-based preventive interventions; and the role
of pretend play in child development. Her clinical interests include
psychotherapeutic interventions related to stress and trauma, and
mindfulness-based stress reduction.
