Dear AAPA Friends and Colleagues:
We are pleased to announce the call for nominations for leadership positions within AAPA and several Divisions. We have many important positions available. The nominations along with candidate statements are due by April 1, 2014.
The vibrancy of an organization is often reflected in its voting process. We strongly encourage you to nominate yourself and colleagues for a unique opportunity to serve as a leader within AAPA. In the past, nominations have been based on many factors, including expertise, passion for a particular cause, a desire to help, interest in working with an inspiring group of colleagues, or even simple curiosity (e.g., what exactly does a “board member” do?). Whatever your motivation(s) might be, please consider nominating someone (or multiple people!) for these positions.
AAPA is seeking nominations for the following elected positions:
President-Elect (1-year term begins August 2014, followed by a 2-year term as President, followed by a 1-year term as Past-President)
Vice President (2-year term begins August 2015)

2 Board of Directors (one Director position to be filled by a student) (2-year term begins August 2014)
