Why BCACC?

For more than 36 years, public protection has been central to our mission. Our members must meet rigorous entry requirements including a master’s degree, supervised clinical experience, and a detailed vetting process. We also operate a structured complaints and inquiry process to protect the public and support insurers when concerns arise.
The RCC designation is widely recognized in BC as a trusted standard for safe, effective mental health care.
