March 2009 MEMBERSHIP COMMITTEE REPORT Hello friends and colleagues, And the winner of the free 2010 membership is ……Dr. Hanne Riegg-Luedge. Congratulations! Thank you, Dr. Riegg-Luedge and all the other members who have renewed their MBPA membership for 2009. Membership is our lifeblood. Without you, our esteemed members, we have no organization! In the last few months, membership has been concentrating on the renewal process. We are finding that our membership numbers are down considerably this year. Perhaps you have forgotten – if so, simply click on this link: www.mbpsych.org/content/2009_Membership_Renewal.pdf and print out the form, complete it and send it with your dues to Dr. Ann Bolger, 725 Front Street, Santa Cruz, CA 95060. I look forward to hearing from you. At the heart of MPBA is the opportunity to connect and collaborate with the many talented mental health professionals in our community. Other benefits of MBPA membership include 1) staying informed through our newsletter, website, (and coming soon, the MBPA list-serv), and connection with the California Psychological Association; 2) attending informative seminars and workshops (some of which will fulfill continuing education requirements) and exciting social events like the party at Dr. Jacques home last month; 3) supporting and educating the community by giving public service talks through the MBPA Speakers’ Bureau, writing articles, or participating in forums; and 4) increasing the visibility of your practice, research, workshops, and talks. If you are reading this newsletter, you are receiving one of the many benefits of MBPA membership. Please renew today! Thank you.
