Join the APAGS Division Student Representative Network
Established to create a nexus between APA Divisions and student leaders, the Division Student Representative Network (DSRN) provides a forum for student representatives to discuss the challenges of recruiting student members, while building leadership skills within each division. Once a division has selected a student representative, they will then be subscribed to a closed listserv where they can share information and lessons learned within their divisions, and get important APAGS news and information from one source. For more information and forms for designating a student member, please visit: www.apa.org/apags/getinv/dsrninstructions.html.

The meeting will take place on Sunday, August 18th from 3:00-3:50 a.m. in the APAGS Suite at the San Francisco Marriott Hotel.
