The San Francisco Psychiatric Society is dedicated to a central mission of providing excellent professional education for psychiatrists. To accomplish this, the society advocates for the integration of the major models of psychiatry which have historically engendered polarization and conflict in the field. Based on the evidence, the society centers its mission on improving the clinical care of patients with mental illness through attention to three core principles in psychiatry: 1) psychoeducation 2) psychopharmacology and 3) psychotherapy. In support of this mission, the San Francisco Psychiatric Society sponsors educational and social events for Bay Area psychiatrists and, additionally, Psychiatry Events Monthly, a calendar of psychiatry-related events taking place in the Bay area emailed widely to interested health professionals and also available on SFpsych.org.
