The submission period has ended.

You are invited to submit a conference session proposal on an emerging trend or a poster about topics aligned with members' interests and NPC20 tracks and topics. The submission portal will open December 9, 2019 and will close at 12 pm (CT) on January 8, 2020.

APA seeks to represent and build more capacity for diverse perspectives within the association and throughout the profession. APA encourages its members to embrace and prioritize these efforts in preparing for NPC20 and beyond.

Diversity is an inclusive concept that encompasses — but is not limited to — race, ethnicity, class, gender, age, sexuality, ability, educational attainment, spiritual beliefs, creed, culture, tribal affiliation, nationality, immigration status, political beliefs and veteran status. Please consider equity, diversity, and inclusion as you develop content, choose contributors, and identify speakers for your proposed NPC20 session.
