University Partnerships & Engagement
Empowering the Next Generation of Educators and Practitioners
A History of Excellence and Innovation
PSI is rooted in colleges and universities. It all began in 1977 when PSI was born from a collaboration between the Cleveland Catholic Diocese and a team of Kent State University professors and students. One of those students was PSI Founder, Dr. Steve Rosenberg, who was finishing up his PhD. in School Psychology. And over 40 years later, we are still engaged with colleges and universities.
PSI has stood at the forefront of providing educational and health services that champion the cause of holistic child development and learning. Our journey began with a simple yet profound commitment to integrating high-quality health, psychology, and educational services into schools. This dedication has propelled PSI to become a beacon of innovation and a trusted partner in education.
