[mailto:pta...@lists.apa.org] On Behalf Of Boenau, Martha Sent: Monday, August 24, 2009 9:49 AM To: pta...@lists.apa.org Subject: [PTATCC] APA Speaker Network-- A great tool for teachers Hello Colleagues, I hope that everyone had a great summer. As you prepare to return to the classrooms for fall I would like to draw your attention to the APA Expanded Speaker Network for 2009. Creating the network has been a project headed by Harold Takooshian at Fordham University, Rivka Meir and myself. APA's Committee on Division-APA Relations (CODAPAR) initially funded creating the network, but more recently with the current economy Harold and Rivka have contributed much of their own time to build the network. In 2007 the network was first launched with a list of 193 fellows of APA in zip-code order -- so U.S. schools, corporations, and community groups can easily find a willing expert speaker in their own area. In August 2009, the second edition was launched at APA in Toronto, expanded to include four sponsoring divisions, 212 APA Fellows ready not only to speak on their topics of expertise, but also to: - consult with the media - advise students or colleagues - possibly host a visit by a student group to their lab or clinic. I hope that you will bookmark the URL pointing to the network http://web.mac.com/rvelayo//Div52Announcements/Speakers_files/Speakers%2 87-26-09%29.pdf <http://web.mac.com/rvelayo/Div52Announcements/Speakers_files/Speakers%2 87-26-09%29.pdf> and utilize it often.
