Positive Psychology and Health Conference
Make your plans now to attend the 3rd Biennial Counseling Health Psychology
Conference on August 21, 2002 at Rush-Presbyterian-St. Luke's Medical
Center in Chicago. The conference is sponsored by the Health Section of
Division 17 and by Rush. The conference will also be co-sponsored by other
APA Divisions. The focus of this year's one-day conference is on positive
psychology, health, and helping people change. The conference title is
Positive Psychology and Health: Building the Best things in Life.
Continuing education credits will be available for psychologists.
Information and Registration materials for the conference can be found at:
http://www.uiowa.edu/~hlthpsy/conference/indexhtm
Also attached is a Microsoft Word version of the registration form.
The conference will be held on the day prior to the 2002 APA conference to
make it more convenient and cost-effective for people to attend. The
previous two conferences were very successful, and we expect this year's
conference to be excellent. The format of conference will include keynote
speakers and breakout sessions. Keynote speakers will present on positive
psychology and health, and breakout sessions will allow more in-depth
discussion of research and practice issues.
This conference is especially great for students because of the low cost
and opportunity to network with scholars and national leaders in positive
psychology.
See you in Chicago!
