Suicide Prevention
This Special Task Group ( STG ) is chaired by John Westefeld, and it will be his
presidential project when he becomes president of Division 17 at the 2009 APA
convention. The specifics of this STG are still being developed; however, at
this point activities of this STG will most likely include community outreach at
the 2010 APA convention in San Diego, posting of suicide prevention materials on
this website, a symposium at the 2010 APA on suicide prevention, and possible
suicide prevention training at the 2010 APA convention. Additional details
concerning this STG will be posted when the project begins in August, 2009.
