The benefits of membership in Division 17 are tangible as well as intangible. The tangible benefits include subscriptions to the Division 17 Newsletter and six journal issues of The Counseling Psychologist. The intangible benefits involve a sense of identity and community with colleagues who share a commitment to counseling psychology. This sense of community is fostered by the Division’s listserv, sponsorship of programs at the APA annual convention and regional conferences, involvement with various Sections and Special Interest Groups, and Division committee service and awards.
Depending on your needs, you have several membership options. Regardless of which option you choose, you will receive a welcome packet within 5 to 6 weeks of returning your Division 17 application. You will begin receiving regular issues of the Division 17 Newsletter and The Counseling Psychologist shortly thereafter.
