About 56th Annual International Convention of The ABPsi
The Association of Black Psychologists, Inc. (ABPsi) announces its 56th Annual International Convention, from July 30 to August 3, 2025, at the Historic Bethune-Cookman University (B-CU) in Daytona Beach, Florida.
The ABPsi is excited to invite you to our 56th Annual International Convention. This year's theme, "Returning to Spirit: The Essence of Who We Be," promises to be a thought-provoking experience in African/Black Psychology providing a space for intellectual discourse, cultural engagement, and professional development. The convention will be held at the Historically Black College and University (HBCU), Bethune-Cookman University (B-CU) in Daytona Beach, Florida.
Building on the success of last year’s 55th convention, this year’s gathering will further advance the discourse on African-Centered psychological frameworks and strategies for collective well-being—hallmarks of The ABPsi convenings. Additionally, we will enhance the experience through community engagement and unique media programming. In celebration of the 120th anniversary of Bethune-Cookman University, as the host institution, this event will acknowledge B-CU’s history, legacy of academic excellence, service, and transformative education, reflecting the vision of its founder, Dr. Mary McLeod Bethune.
