ELECT
Ronald Rozensky, Ph.D.
APA President

        As President of the American Psychological Association I will continue to vigorously advocate for important issues such as mental health parity, IRB reform, improved health care reimbursement rates, increased research funding, expanded funding for education & training, tenure protection, guaranteed peer review for research funding, practice expansion including prescriptive authority & hospital practice for those who seek to have those responsibilities, license mobility, and ensured diversity throughout our field, .
        I will assure, as Witmer entreated, that Psychology is recognized for "... throw[ing] light upon the problems of humanity" and that our strong science forms the foundation for our professional lives.
       As APA President, the theme of my presidential initiative will be "Celebrating our Past, Enjoying our Present, and Building Psychology's Future: Educating Psychologists for Science, Practice, and Public Service."  This theme will highlight that we are all members of the "Family of Psychology" and that we all must work together to build our future. 
       With successful leadership experience in practice, the Academy, research, public service, and APA governance --- with pride in our field and enthusiasm for the future of Psychology --- I ask for your #1 vote.

Thank you,

I would be happy to hear from you regarding your thoughts about current issues in Psychology, the future of our field, and with any questions about my Presidential Goals, Initiatives, and candidacy.  Please email me at rozensky@phhp.ufl.edu.
