Question:
How to cite a part of this website in APA format? I am looking to use some information off of this page https://ctb.ku.edu/en/table-of-contents/implement/enhancing-support/peer-support-groups/main - but I am unsure how to cite it. Who would the author be? Would it be Chris Hampton because he is the contributor? Thanks!
Answer:

  Thank you for writing to us. If you are using American Psychological Association [APA] style, a suggested generic format for citing Community Toolbox materials would be:
Community Toolbox (n.d.).  Chapter [insert number of the chapter], Section [insert number of the section], [insert title of section, in italics].  Retrieved from https://ctb.ku.edu, [insert date of your retrieval]. 
To put this in the form of a specific example, if you were citing Chapter 4, Section 2 today (this section is chosen at random), your citation would look like:
Community Toolbox (n.d.). Chapter 4, Section 2, Communicating information about community health and development issues.  Retrieved from https://ctb.ku.edu, February 24, 2023.  
   (FYI, the “n.d.” in both cases above indicates that no date of publication was cited in the original source.)
Our own practice is to cite the Community Tool Box itself as the author, since almost all of what we publish is a group effort.
You can find additional style format guidance in the APA Publication Manual.
Thanks again for writing; we hope this is useful to you.
