Brittani RichardFirst Year RepresentativeHello there! I’m Brittani Richard, CUASP’s newbie. I’m a first-year student in Chapman’s school psychology program and am excited about learning how to best support our school communities, particularly through mental health services. It’s been wonderful to gain new skills and even put some of them into practice already. I also work for Chapman University doing grant writing, so you can catch me on campus quite often! I'm looking forward to being in the field and hope to work particularly with adolescents in juvenile hall facilities as part of my practicum experience. On my off time, I enjoy playing softball, going to the beach, attempting DIY crafts, and traveling.
