AdminHistoryThe Division of Criminological & Legal Psychology, founded in 1977, was renamed the Division of Forensic Psychology (DFP) in 1999. The Division exists to represent the interests of the increasing number of psychologists whose work involves them in the Criminal and Civil Justice systems. It's first committee meeting was 27 May 1977.

The Division draws its membership from a broad range of psychologists working in the Criminal and Civil Justice systems. Division membership includes forensic psychologists working in academic settings, prison services, health, education and social services.

For details of the Division's history see: A short history of the DCLP Farrington, D.P. (1999) 21 years of the DCLP. Forensic Update, 56, 21-37.
