Welcome to Toronto and the 123rd Annual Convention of the American Psychological Association, the premier meeting of psychologists from the United States, Canada, and around the world. Please take full advantage of this unparalleled oppor-

tunity to learn, share information, and network with

the top psychologists across our discipline. In an effort

to make your convention more user-friendly this year,

the APA Central Programming Group has scheduled

80 collaborative programs thematically throughout

the convention.

These programs, involving at least two divisions, meet

special criteria: They have broad appeal, are original

and innovative, have an interactive/creative format,

feature timely topics, are scientifi cally based, and pay

attention to diversity. The APA divisions that initiated

each program are noted with each session listing.

Collaborative programs are identifi ed by this logo:

In addition, these programs focus on one of our con-

vention themes: Competencies at the Intersections

of Diversities; Disparities in Health, Wellness,

Justice, and Education; Embracing Interdisciplinarity:

Reaching Out Beyond Psychology; Emerging Areas

of Science, Practice, and Education: Lifelong Training

for Psychologists; Promises and Pitfalls of Technology;

Psychology of Work and Group Dynamics; and

Violence, Bullying, Victimization, and Trauma.

As 2015 president, my primary initiative this year is

embracing integrated care in an era of health care

change. My presidential programming focuses on

psychology and integrated care. I will also feature

sessions on leaders in psychology with nontraditional

roles. Special logos will identify sessions related to

these topics.

At the opening session on Thursday, August 6, I will

honor psychologist and best-selling novelist Jonathan

Kellerman, PhD, with the APA Award for Outstanding

Lifetime Contributions to Psychology. Dr. Kellerman

will also deliver the keynote address.

Many notable speakers will join us in Toronto, includ-

ing Jennifer Eberhardt, PhD, “Race and Policing

in America: Mapping a Way Forward in the 21st

Century”; Dorothy L. Espelage, PhD, “School-Based

Bully Prevention: Translating Rigorous Research

Findings Into Practice; Glen E. Smith, PhD, “Can We

Prevent Dementia? Progress and Challenges”; and

Benjamin F. Miller, PsyD, “Evolution or Revolution?

The Future of Psychology in Integrated Health

Care”—among many others.

I am confident you will have many exciting, interest-

ing, and educational experiences at the convention.

I look forward to seeing many of you throughout

the meeting.

THURSDAY, AUGUST 65:00–6:30 p.m.

Opening Session (1361)Convention Centre, South Building–Level 800,

Exhibit Halls F and G

Join us in welcoming Jonathan Kellerman, PhD, as he returns to his psychologist roots as the keynote speaker and recipient of the 2015 APA Award for Outstanding Lifetime Contributions to Psychology.

Dr. Kellerman was selected to

receive APA’s highest honor

for his ground-breaking work

as a clinical psychologist and

researcher at a time when the

medical establishment view

of the field was very different

from what it is today. As the founding director of the

Psychosocial Program at Children’s Hospital of Los

Angeles, he and his hospital team created a primary

clinical model for psychosocial care for children

with cancer, which continues to serve as a model for

programs throughout the country.

The years he spent working as a clinical psycholo-

gist gave him a close-up view of human nature in

all its facets, and he credits that training for his suc-

cess as a novelist. Dr. Kellerman is the #1 New York

Times best-selling author of more than three dozen

crime novels. He is also the author of two children’s

books and numerous nonfiction works.

In his enlightening and engaging keynote address,

Dr. Kellerman will talk about some of his early expe-

riences as a psychologist, his insights on the future

of the field, and of course his fascinating journey as

a writer.

Following the opening session, Dr. Kellerman

will sign copies of his new novel, The Murderer’s

Daughter—making it available to APA convention

attendees before its public release.

JAZZ.FM91 Youth Big Band

Musical entertainment during the opening session

will be provided by the extraordinarily talented

JAZZ.FM91 Youth Big Band. Through the commu-

nity outreach activities of radio station JAZZ.FM91,

the Youth Big Band program provides musically

gifted middle and high school students with a rare

opportunity to hone their skills and interact in a

diverse, professional setting with regular training from

some of the foremost Canadian music educators and

jazz musicians.

Challenges and Opportunities for Psychologists in a Changing World: Coping With Change in Research and Practice (3314)Convention Centre, South Building–Level 700,

Room 714B

The Patient Protection and

Affordable Care Act of 2010 has

changed the landscape of health

care delivery. Over the past 5

years, an additional 16 million

people have received health care

coverage that emphasizes prevention and does not

exclude preexisting conditions. Many physical health

conditions have behavioral health components that

are fully covered benefits of this legislation.

The role of psychologists in this new system is yet

to be fully understood. What is known is that the

training and education of future psychologists will be

competency-based, with expanded opportunities to

deliver evidence-derived treatments in an integrated

setting. The challenge for psychology and psycholo-

gists is to create and nurture an environment in which

our value is appreciated and our expertise required in

treating the whole person.

Daring Greatly: Exploring the Power of Vulnerability (2208)

Brené Brown, PhD, is a research

professor at the University of

Houston Graduate College of

Social Work. She has spent the

past 13 years studying vulnera-

bility, courage, worthiness, and

shame. Her 2010 TEDxHouston talk, “The Power of

Vulnerability,” is one of the top five most viewed

TED talks in the world, with over 18 million viewers.

Dr. Brown is the author of two #1 New York Times

bestsellers—Daring Greatly: How the Courage to

Be Vulnerable Transforms the Way We Live, Love,

Parent, and Lead and The Gifts of Imperfection.

Her latest book, Rising Strong, examines how falling

down can be our greatest call to courage and why

owning our stories of struggle gives us the power to

write a daring new ending. She is also the CEO and

chief learning officer for The Daring Way™, a train-

ing and certification program for helping profession-

als who want to facilitate her work on vulnerability,

courage, shame, and worthiness.

Session description: On the basis of 13 years of pio-

neering research, Dr. Brown dispels the cultural myth

that vulnerability is weakness and argues that it is

actually our most accurate measure of courage.

1:00–1:50 p.m.
