[#DIV28SUPER] Reminder: Call for APA 2022 Board and Committee Call for Nominations

Hello colleagues,

Just a friendly reminder to please consider nominating yourself or a colleague for a position in the APA leadership. Please also contact me directly (Kdunn9@jhmi.edu) if you'd like to discuss having Division 28 formally nominate you. Division 28 is a strong scientific division and our members have a history of providing important perspective and expertise across a broad number of issues and efforts throughout the APA organization.

Please note that we are particularly interested in having a Division 28 member on the Committee for Postdoctoral Education and Training Programs in Psychopharmacology for Prescriptive Authority, which has high content overlap with our division. Please contact us if you'd like us to formally nominate you for this role.  The deadline for nominations is January 31, 2022.

 

Warm regards and happy holidays

Kelly
