Get in touch

Support. Educate. Advocate.

A new organization.

Built on years
of experience.

COCAP may be new, but the physicians behind it bring deep experience in child and adolescent psychiatry, education, advocacy, mentorship, and care. We are bringing that experience together to build a stronger statewide organization for Oregon’s clinicians, young people, and families.

  • A connected
    clinical community.

  • Continued learning
    and shared knowledge.

  • A stronger future
    for Oregon’s youth.

Our values
Youth and families first
We keep the needs of young people and families at the center of the work.
Excellence in care
We value learning, evidence, expertise, and continuous improvement.
Connection
We build stronger relationships between clinicians, communities, partners, and the people they serve.
Access
Where a young person lives should not determine whether quality psychiatric care is available to them. COCAP works to strengthen access across Oregon, including in rural and underserved communities.
Trust
We follow through. We communicate clearly. We act responsibly with the confidence placed in us.

What we do

Support.

A stronger workforce
for brighter tomorrows.

COCAP connects child and adolescent psychiatrists across Oregon through professional community, mentorship, collaboration, and opportunities for clinicians to learn from and support one another, including those serving rural and underserved communities.

Educate.

Better care requires
continued learning.

COCAP advances clinical education and creates opportunities for physicians and other clinicians serving Oregon youth to stay connected to current knowledge, best practices, and one another.

Advocate.

A stronger voice
for Oregon’s youth.

COCAP brings clinical expertise into conversations about policies and systems affecting child and adolescent mental health, advocating for better access to quality psychiatric care for young people and families across the state.

Our mission

COCAP strengthens child and adolescent mental health care across Oregon by supporting the psychiatric workforce, advancing education, and advocating for better access to quality care for youth and families.

A statewide coalition

Stronger connections
across Oregon.

Oregon’s communities are different, but young people everywhere deserve access to excellent mental health care. COCAP is working to build stronger connections among child and adolescent psychiatrists throughout the state, support clinicians in rural and underserved communities, and strengthen the workforce Oregon families depend on.

Who COCAP is for

Built for clinicians.
Focused on youth and families.

COCAP serves Oregon’s child and adolescent psychiatry community while keeping the larger purpose of that work in view: healthier young people, supported families, and better access to quality care.

We’re just getting started

More is coming soon.

COCAP is building its membership, programs, educational opportunities, and statewide partnerships. For now, we’d love to hear from clinicians, partners, families, and others interested in the future of child and adolescent mental health care in Oregon.
