Yesterday, U.S. @SenJackReed visited Bryant to deliver a $1.5 million federal earmark to support the expansion of @BryantUHealth and its new Doctor of Clinical Psychology (Psy.D.) program, which is currently recruiting its first class for the fall of 2025. “You’re doing what responsible institutions do,” Reed told Bryant leaders including SHBS’s Dr. Kirsten Hokeness and Dr. Joseph Trunzo, Ph.D., who shared plans to double the footprint of Bryant’s psychology training facilities and prepare the next generation of clinicians who, upon graduation, will be prepared to address the mental health care crisis head-on. “What’s the big problem and how can you help? And you’re doing that.” Learn more about Bryant’s Psy.D. program here: bryant.edu/.../doctor-clinic…
