NETWORKING OPPORTUNITIES
Call for ABCT Students to Serve as an International Colleague

ABCT is excited to announce the launch of a new networking opportunity for students:
The International Student Colleague Program!

What is the program?

The International Student Colleague Program pairs students from different countries with students from the United States or Canada. Pairing is based on research interests and language match.

This is a great opportunity for networking with students from different parts of the world who share similar professional interests, plus the ability to introduce your student colleague to your colleagues, friends and ABCT leaders, and show them the best that ABCT has to offer!

What are the requirements?

Host students need to have attended an ABCT convention in the past and be familiar with the association such as knowing about Special Interest Groups (SIGs), the Friday night SIG Expo & Welcoming Cocktail Party, the program book, and willing to spend some time with the student colleague during the convention .

To participate, students will be required to complete a short application so that the best possible match is made. The application will be made available on the ABCT website.

What time commitment is involved?

Once you are paired with a student, you will be sent information about contacting your International student colleague to answer any questions about ABCT or the convention. You are encouraged to establish correspondence via email or phone. You are also asked to meet with your student colleague at the convention and introduce them to other ABCT members.

More information will be made available on the ABCT website and the list-serve

Who do I contact if I have questions?

Please contact T. Lindsey Burrell at tlindsey.burrell@ttu.edu or Joaquin Borrego at Joaquin.Borrego@ttu.edu for more information!

ABCT has always received support and encouragement from its extraordinary friends, a diverse group that includes members of the Association, relatives and friends of our members, and individuals who have benefited from cognitive-behaviorally oriented treatments. The benefits to ABCT are many and are as diverse as this group of supporters. But what benefits does a friend derive from the transaction?

An association with stability and quality
Since its inception in 1966, ABCT has functioned as a professional, multidisciplinary organization that fosters the application of behavioral and cognitive sciences to understanding human behavior, developing interventions to enhance the human condition, and promoting the appropriate utilization of these interventions. Today, donors know that an affiliation with ABCT puts them in touch with an established organization that is synonymous with quality, leadership, and learning. ABCT's reputation is global and its future unlimited.

What you can do
As one of, if not the leading organization supporting clinical science and evidence based treatment, we believe it is important to maintain this tradition and carry our important work forward. In order to do so, your help is essential. Donors have a flexible array of options wherein they can support one or more areas of theoretical, scientific, and/or practical application. For example, consider:

ABCT will proudly acknowledge your donation in the convention program, our member newsletter, and/or on the ABCT website.

Remember ABCT in your estate planning
An important and overlooked means of ensuring that our work continues is by making a bequest to ABCT in your will. The Federal Government encourages such gifts by allowing an unlimited estate tax deduction. Oftentimes these funds are designated for the Fund for the Future, which insures the functioning of ABCT in perpetuity.

Financial advantages for the donor
Through planned giving, donor friends can make a lasting contribution that both benefits them and at the same time supports a great organization.

To learn more about how we can assist you in tailoring a contribution to meet your vision for the future and to support ABCT, please contact Mary Jane Eimer, CAE, ABCT's Executive Director, at 212-647-1890, mjeimer@abct.org, or by writing to Executive Director, ABCT, 305 Seventh Avenue, New York, NY 10001.
