Please Vote for Kazdin for APA President

Dear Colleague,

I am a candidate for President of the American Psychological Association. If you have not identified a candidate you strongly favor (or perhaps even if you have), I would be grateful if you would consider voting for me. I am running to advance several priorities and themes for our profession as noted on the one-page attachment and elaborated at my web site (www.votekazdinapa.yale.edu ).

I am eager to work on critical issues for our profession and organization and to unite our practice, service, and science. I have experience in each of these areas and am eager to represent all of the psychology. Of course I would like you to vote for me. The Hare voting system allows you to rank your votes. I would be elated if you gave me your #1 vote and still grateful for your #2 vote. In an organization of 150,000 approximately 14,000 actually vote, < 10% so the more important message is for you to vote. Please vote and please vote for Kazdin. The ballots are now being sent by APA. The voting continues from mid-October through November.

Thank you for any participation in the election and consideration of me for your vote.

Best wishes, Alan Kazdin
