APA Division 42
Psychologists In Independent Practice
25th Anniversary Celebration CD
How quickly "history" seems to fade, unless memorialized in media more durable than the individual mind. Who knows what media will be available when Division 42 celebrates its 50th!
In trying to recollect exactly how this project came about, details seem hazy even with only a few months' perspective. The idea for this CD was probably first voiced January 26th 2007, and independently raised a second time the following day at the 2007 Division 42 Board Meeting in Seattle, Washington. The nod to go ahead was given less than one month later. This means the project team had four months to identify content, contact potential contributors, conduct interviews, obtain permissions, obtain and edit the materials, and create the "master" CD. If there is a next time, we hope the team has, oh, a year or so. But the pace has been invigorating, the work more like play, and we hope the result is well worth your giving this a CD a read. And a listen. And a look.
It is often said, and sometimes actually true, "This could not have been accomplished without the help of numerous people." This is most certainly true for this project. This CD is the result of a collaboration among many people. It is an effort to bring some of the history, some of the vibrancy of the Division to our members and to those who might like to join, to celebrate where we have been and to imagine what the next 25 years could bring. It is dedicated to all of our members, our officers and others who have served the Division, all the people who ARE Division 42. Please enjoy Division 42's "Greatest Hits!"

Presidents' Perspectives: Interviews with Division 42 Past Presidents
In this oral history effort, we asked our past presidents to tell us how we became a division, describe major challenges they and the division faced and outstanding achievements they and the division accomplished, anticipate likely future challenges for the independent practice of psychology, and guide us to best prepare for the future. Please listen to their wisdom!
