[#DIV28SUPER] Membership to Division 28

Hi everyone,

The division of Psychopharmacology and Substance Abuse (Division 28) (soon to be renamed the Society for Psychopharmacology and Substance Use) of the American Psychological Association (APA) was formed in 1967 to allow for psychologists and pharmacologists who were interested in behavioral pharmacology to come together and share their research and ideas. This original concept is still the driving focus behind the division nearly 60 years later.

While the cost to being a member of Division 28 is a bargain ($20 for members and $9 for student members), the value that can be obtained for you is immeasurable. As a member of Division 28, you have access to numerous benefits including access to several listservs, newsletters (sent out three times per year), and opportunities for awards. By being a member of Division 28 in APA, you also have the power APA offers as an advocacy group for various psychological issues that other organizations do not offer. Please note that you do not need to be a member of APA to join Division 28 or to support and maintain your Division 28 membership.

Please consider joining/continuing to support Division 28 and maintain your division benefits. You can join or renew your membership now at https://www.apa.org/renew or here (note, you may first need to log in to your MyAPA account). If you have any difficulties joining/renewing or believe you have received this email in error, please reach out to me at yatesj1@nku.edu.

Also, the following link (https://www.apa.org/science/about/elevating-psychological-science) explains how the APA has been working to improve, promote, and apply psychological science.

Best,

Justin
