US Psychiatric Rehabilitation (USPRA) is a professional association in the mental health care sector, based in Linthicum, Maryland. Founded in 1975, it helped define the practice of psychosocial and psychiatric rehabilitation and positioned these services as central to community-based treatment and recovery. Today, USPRA seeks to advance the field and its outcomes by bringing together agencies, clinicians, families, and individuals living with psychiatric disabilities, along with leaders in education and research, and government entities focused on evidence-based approaches. The organization supports nearly 30 state chapters that provide local and national training and networking opportunities and broaden member participation. Chapters also advocate for state legislative and regulatory changes and help foster leadership within the field, sometimes in collaboration with broader association efforts. With roughly 1,400 members, USPRA is described as a leading organization in the United States for psychiatric rehabilitation.
