Jeff, Thanks much for the info. Like other members, who attended the Annual APA Convention in San Diego, I missed the AVAPL business meeting which occurred simultaneously with other events / presentations at adjoining hotels and the conference center. The meeting minutes will suffice. Thanks for keeping us posted. From: avaplmembers-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:avaplmembers-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Burk, Jeffrey P.

From: avaplmembers-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:avaplmembers-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Hinterthuer, Mark Sent: Tuesday, June 15, 2010 3:04 PM To: members1@xxxxxxxxx Subject: [AVAPL Members] AVAPL Elections and Awards To AVAPL members: The AVAPL ballot has been sent to all members and I hope that you will take the time to vote. The election will close on July 14. The AVAPL Executive Committee will be meeting soon to consider awards that will be presented at the AVAPL business meeting during the APA convention in San Diego. There is still a short time to recommend individuals for an AVAPL award. I am listing the names of the many psychologists and other professionals who have been recognized by AVAPL in the past. As you can see, it is an impressive list of individuals who have made significant contributions to VA psychology – and to our Veterans. We not only want to thank them once again but want to recognize others who are deserving of AVAPL recognition. If you would like to recommend someone for an AVAPL award, please forward their name(s) to me for consideration by the AVAPL Executive Committee.
