Community Psychology

Community psychology is a type of psychology that focuses on understanding how people are affected by the communities they live in. It looks at how communities can influence mental health, how we build relationships with each other and how we can help to make our communities better places to live. Community psychologists work with groups and organizations to create programs, policies and services to help people live healthier lives in their community. They work with communities to help them understand what is going on, how it affects the people living there, and what can be done to make things better.
