Voting begins on Tuesday, January 2, 2018, and ends on Wednesday, January 31, 2018.
There are 20 candidates vying for national and Area office in this year’s election. For those who would like more information about the candidates directly from them, below their photos they can find the addresses of their personal websites.
Ballots will be emailed on Tuesday, January 2, to all APA voting members who have a valid email address on file with APA. Those who do not will receive a mailed paper ballot.
After January 2, voters may also go to the homepage of APA’s website, click on the 2018 election link, and use their member login information to access their electronic ballot.
To help APA members select the candidates they believe are best qualified for office, candidates’ biographical and position statements will be posted on the APA election website by the end of this month at psychiatry.org/election. A booklet containing the same information will be mailed with the paper ballots.
Members can also view videos of the candidates for president-elect, treasurer, and trustee-at-large as they discuss their positions on issues important to APA and psychiatry. The videos will be posted on the APA election website by the end of this month.
For Area trustee, members can vote only in the race for their Area, and only resident-fellow members (RFMs) can vote for RFM trustee-elect.
Requests for replacement paper ballots must be emailed by Friday, January 19, to [email protected]. The deadline for online voting and receipt of paper ballots is Wednesday, January 31, 2018, at 11:59 p.m. EST.
APA members wishing to campaign on behalf of a candidate are asked to review the APA Election Guidelines, which can also be accessed here.
Those with comments or questions about the election should email them to [email protected].
