Re: [#DIV28SUPER] APA approved Div 28 name change: PLEASE VOTE

Greetings colleagues,

I would also like to draw attention to and thank our former President Wendy Lynch, who originated the plan to remove stigmatizing language from our organizational name during her Presidency.

Warm regards,

Kelly

I'm sending this on behalf of APA Division 28 President Tom Gould:

-----------------------------------------

Dear Members of Division 28,

Division 28's name change to The Society for Psychopharmacology and Substance Use has been approved by APA. To officially complete this process, we need to ratify with a member vote a change to the By-Laws to reflect the new name. Please use the link below to either indicate your support [Yes] or your opposition [No] to the name change.

I want to thank our past Presidents Ryan Vandrey and Kelly Dunn, and the member of the Div 28 Executive who worked to bring this about.

Sincerely,

Tom
