LEADERSHIP
Christina Marino
Position: NHPASO Board President
Years on board: Second year
In NH we are currently living in a fragile state for our mental health community. I recently joined the NHPA because I believe they are at the forefront of helping to educate and lead our state towards effective change and compassionate, competent, accessible care for clients. I believe regardless of our title, role, and current position, we all as health care professionals have a call to action. Each one of us has a responsibility to use our voice to protect those who have lost theirs. My goal as an aspiring psychologist is to use my skills to better the lives of others and to serve the community. I can think of no better way to continue to grow in this manner both professionally and personally than to dedicate myself to the NHPA community.

Position: NHPASO Secretary Years on board: First Being a young professional in the field of psychology I feel that I am in a unique position where I can help shape the future of mental health in the state of New Hampshire. As a member of the NHPA I have the opportunity to follow along as my peers, mentors, and professionals help the congressmen and women of New Hampshire and the United States shape legislation that will affect people of diverse backgrounds for generations to come. I hope to use what is being taught in the classroom to help to shape legislation that will enact a positive change for mental health for all. As such, it is my goal to continue to work on becoming a competent and ethical psychologist so that I can help mold the future of mental health both in New Hampshire and across the country.

Position: NHPASO Membership Chair Years on Board: First The NHPASO is an opportunity for students to strengthen their voice through advocacy and networking while developing their professional practice. As a doctoral student of Rivier University, I have learned of the importance of these professional connections. The organization is composed of those who wish to promote the field and ensure the wellbeing of others. The NHPASO allows us to contribute to these pursuits and promote our passion directly to the community. These are only a few of the reasons I chose to join the NHPASO. As Membership Chair, I hope to extend these values to students

Position: NHPASO Events Coordinator
Years on Board: First year
The field of psychology offers a plethora of career options that may appear daunting for some students to navigate. The NHPASO provides students the unique opportunity to explore the field through connections with other students and experienced professionals. These relationships facilitate conversations about real-world situations beyond those discussed in the classroom. I joined the NHPASO to organize events that will create a welcoming atmosphere to stimulate and facilitate these networking opportunities for students.
