Division 20 Adult Development and Aging needs your apportionment votes
Division 20 works in the best interests of aging across all areas of psychology.
Keep our voice strong in the Council of Representatives. We need your apportionment vote for Division 20 to keep our 2 Council Seats.
You will receive your APA Apportionment Ballot soon. Your votes will determine the composition of the APA Council of Representatives for the next year. The Council of Representatives is the governance body in APA that sets policies throughout the association. Division 20's ability to represent aging issues makes a difference all areas including practice, policy, research, and training. We have managed to hold onto our second Council seat but last year, we came close to losing it. If you and every other Division 20 member gave us all 10 votes, we could even gain a third seat. However, the truth is that most people don't actually submit their votes. You pay your APA dues, and you've earned the right to represent our division in the association!
If you gave us 1 vote last year, give us 3 this year; if you gave us 3, give us 5--- you get the idea! Just 1 or 2 more votes from each of our members would ensure our continued representation.
Of course, if you gave us 10, thank you, and please keep up your support!
Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
On behalf of my fellow Division 20 Council Representative, K. Warner Schaie, and I, thank you for your attention!
Best,
