Mission
and Editorial Policy 
Psychiatric News is the newspaper of the American Psychiatric Association (APA). It is published on the first and third Fridays of each month.
Psychiatric News is the principal and official means of communication between APA and its members about policies, politics, and legislative and judicial issues affecting psychiatry, as well as the actions and policies of APA itself. The newspaper also serves as a source of clinical and research news pertinent to the field of psychiatry. The content of Psychiatric News does not necessarily reflect the views of APA or the editors. Unless so stated, neither Psychiatric News nor APA guarantees, warrants, or endorses information or advertising in this newspaper. Clinical opinions are not peer reviewed and thus should be independently verified.
The information or advertising contained in this newspaper is not intended to be a substitute for professional treatment or diagnosis. Reliance on such information is at the reader's own risk; neither APA nor Psychiatric News shall be liable if a reader relies on information in the newspaper rather than seeking and following professional advice in a timely manner.
Those who submit letters to the editor and other types of material for Psychiatric News are agreeing that APA has the right, in its sole discretion, to use their submission in print, electronic, or any other media.
Psychiatric News is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
