ADAA would like to thank members Anne Marie Albano, PhD, ABPP and Simon Rego, PsyD, who hosted a very successful Twitter chat on suicide prevention on July 11. Thank you also to ADAA members Mary Alvord, Jafar Bakhshaie, Shane Owens, and Kristin Bianchi for their contributions. Organizations such as the American Association of Suicidology and Campaign to Change Direction also shared their resources. The chat, reaching nearly 20,000 people, focused on suicide warning signs and how to talk to friends, peers and loved ones. Participants used the hashtag #ADAATalksSuicide to follow along with the chat, which was trending during the chat period.
Read the chat summary here.

Reminder! ADAA Exclusive Member Benefit: Pediatrician Outreach Materials
ADAA's Public Education Committee, in collaboration with the ADAA Child and Adolescent Special Interest Group (SIG), have created two helpful outreach tools to address a need often voiced by ADAA members: How can we inform parents and pediatricians about child anxiety? Why spend hours of your own time trying to create material that effectively and concisely communicates the CBT based services that you offer your clients? Let ADAA do the hard work for you! ADAA members can download and access an ADAA Pediatric Outreach PowerPoint presentation and a customizable brochure (you will need to log-in with your ADAA member ID and password) that summarize empirically supported treatment protocols for anxiety and related disorders. These communication tools will assist in facilitating richer working relationships and clinical collaboration with physicians in your community.
