What is ANZACATA
The Australian, New Zealand and Asian Creative Arts Therapies Association (ANZACATA) is the peak professional body that represents creative arts therapists in Australia, New Zealand and the Asia/Pacific region. It is a member-run self-regulating non-profit company limited by guarantee that seeks to advocate for the profession and to ensure that the training and practice of professional members is in accordance with the highest international standards. It encourages continuing professional development of members by supporting Special Interest Groups (SIGs) representing special interests and regions, hosting regular conferences and symposia, and publishing a peer reviewed journal: the Australian and New Zealand Journal of Arts Therapy (JoCAT). Creative arts therapy is still an emerging profession in our member countries, and the association strives to raise its profile, advocating and lobbying for increasing recognition, as well as forging connections and links with other disciplines, and other countries.

Special Interest Groups (SIGs) and Local/Regional Groups (LRGs)
ANZACATA is in the process of simplifying its structures. At its inception, it hoped to have Colleges (made up of members interested in particular aspects or modalities of creative arts therapy) and also local groups, where members might get together informally in a local area. These groups were called Colleges and Local/Regional CAT Groups. Late in 2019, the Board of ANZACATA agreed to make a name change for simplicity.
Colleges are now called SIGs or Special Interest Groups
Local/Regional CAT Groups are now called LRGs or Local, Regional Groups
Members may wish to establish or join these groups. They are open to ALL ANZACATA members (although they may offer events specifically for some members). They are eligible for a small annual grant to help to arrange events. ANZACATA has developed Terms of Reference for SIGs and LRGs to help members understand their role and purpose.
