California Lutheran University prides itself on promoting a diverse learning environment that respects all perspectives, all ethnicities, all faiths, and even those with no faith. The PsyD program's commitment to delivering excellence in psychological training includes the recognition that we are strongest when we are diverse and that all viewpoints contribute to our understanding of truth. We strongly believe that this open and accepting stance carries us closer to serving society with the best of what psychology has to offer. The PsyD program both upholds and furthers the values and behaviors of California Lutheran University that advance respect, equity, inclusion, and social justice for all persons. In particular, the PsyD program directly acknowledges and unconditionally affirms the integrity of sexual and gender minorities and their access to all human, social, and individual rights.
