NASP Delegate Letter August 2010

As the end of the summer nears, I want to share with you a few NASP updates.

I encourage you to renew your membership, which expired on June 30, to maintain access to your NASP member benefits. Please renew online at www.nasponline.org/membership/index.aspx.

As you begin to gear up for the new school year, you will want to check out the back-to-school resources available at www.nasponline.org/families/index.aspx#back. The offerings include several handouts and audio articles for parents on topics such as homework, school refusal, anxiety disorders, and much more. Don’t forget to utilize the Resource Library, which is organized alphabetically by topic, throughout the school year to easily find resources on the topics you need. You can access the library atwww.nasponline.org/resources/index.aspx.

NASP members can download the latest podcast on treatment integrity, featuring Lisa Sanetti, at www.nasponline.org/resources/podcasts/treatmentintegrity.aspx. Don’t miss the additional resources on the topic, including an article from School Psychology Review and a chapter from Best Practices in School Psychology V.

Consider getting your school year off to a strong start with two top references. If you renew your NASP membership and act before September 30, you can save $100 off the list price on the practice essential, Best Practices in School Psychology V. Visit www.nasponline.org/publications/index.aspx to take advantage of this offer. For even more up-to-the minute material, members can consider purchasing access to the NASP EBSCO Online Library, which consists of peer-reviewed journals with more than one million full-text articles.

While on the NASP website to view these helpful resources, please visit ‘View My Account’ in the top right corner of the website to update your contact information. You can update your mailing address if you’ve moved over the summer or provide a preferred e-mail address. You can also choose which e-mail and print communications you want to receive from NASP.

I hope you enjoy the final weeks of summer, and I look forward to bringing you more NASP news in September.

Sincerely,

Deb Schwiesow, IA Delegate
