Abstract | Historically, despite more formal efforts to spread awareness about the profession, many school psychologists discover the field "by accident" or happenstance. This, in conjunction with attrition, training constraints, an expanding role in schools, and an ever-evolving need for increased school psychologist-to-student ratios to address unmet academic and mental health needs, has resulted in a critical shortage of school psychologists nationwide. To address such shortages, the Ohio School Psychologists Association (OSPA) engaged in several initiatives, including a related services workgroup sponsored by the state board of education (ODE) and a joint task force established with our state's Inter-University Council (IUC) of school psychology programs, which conducted a strategic analysis of the barriers contributing to the current shortages of school psychologists in Ohio. One initiative that grew from the state recommendations was the establishment of a future school psychologists club. This club targeted the first prioritized goal: to attract individuals into the field through intentional and early recruitment, especially from minoritized backgrounds and rural areas, and by establishing ongoing connections to school psychologists in the field.
