Don't Forget to Vote! Your Voice Matters!


Paper and online election ballots were sent to all APA voting members on January 2 allowing them to decide who the next president-elect and other Board of Trustees representatives will be. Voting members who have a valid e-mail address on file with APA were sent their ballot by e-mail; those who do not will receive a mailed paper ballot within the next few days. To see the list of candidates and links to their personal websites, click here. Those who wish to campaign on behalf of a candidate are urged to review the APA election guidelines, which are posted here. Members who do not receive a ballot should send an e-mail requesting a replacement paper ballot by January 23 to election@psych.org.

APA is also encouraging psychiatrists who are not members to join the Association and have their voices heard on important issues facing the profession and the patients they treat.
