It's exciting to have a place in APA that can speak powerfully, with voices of science, practice, and education, to trauma and its issues. Division 56 is a unique opportunity to have impact on our profession.
Division 56 is electronic and GREEN!
Div 56's Trauma Psychology Newsletter went electronic beginning with the Winter 2010 edition. With escalating production and mailing costs and our commitment to eco-friendly efforts, the Fall 2009 edition of TPN was the last one you received on paper. Future versions of the newsletter will be delivered as a PDF file to your email inbox. We will also send out an announcement about newsletter issues as they are published on our website through our division's announce-only listserv, div56announce@lists.apa.org. Complete details about this change were featured in the Fall 2009 issue of the Trauma Psychology Newsletter.
