Welcome to the SAS web site! We enjoyed meeting many of you at the APA Convention in Washington DC, and we are looking forward to another exciting year as the SAS host institution. We feel honored to have been selected for this role and hope to provide you with more opportunities to grow, learn and develop as counseling psychologists-in-training!

The new SCP president, Y. Barry Chung, has several exciting opportunities for students, including a Leadership Academy designed to encourage student and early career professional participation in the association. We hope Dr. Chung's initiatives will inspire you to get involved! See Dr. Chung's welcome message to learn more.

If you haven't yet joined SAS, we invite you to do so today. Once you join, get involved by subscribing to the listserv, liking us on Facebook, contributing articles to the newsletter and joining the Program Representatives Network. We are planning many programs this year which will focus on the areas we identified as most important to our field: Scholarship, Professional Development, Diversity and Social Justice & Advocacy.

We would also like to hear about what is important to you and will be conducting periodic member surveys to learn more about the ways in which SAS can be useful to you. Look for surveys in your Inbox, on the listserv or on our Facebook page. Student Affiliates of Seventeen is YOUR organization and we want to be responsive to your concerns. Feel free to contact executive board members with comments, questions or suggestions or just to say hello! To learn more about board members, see their bios. Have a great semester!
