Get involved

The Couples SIG always welcomes new members from both the clinical and research communities. Members receive the following benefits:

· Events at every annual ABCT Convention

· Access to the Couples SIG email listserv

· Subscription to the bi-annual Couples Research and Therapy Newsletter

Annual Membership Dues are:

• $5 per year for students, first-year post-docs, and retired members
• $30 per year for all professional members *

*Note: Professional dues include $5 toward the Couples SIG Underrepresented Scholars Fund.

If you are interested in joining, please (1) pay dues through Venmo, PayPal, or in person at the convention and then (2) email us at abctcouplessig@gmail.com to be added to the listserv with a screenshot of your completed payment. 

How to pay dues:

Dues can be sent electronically to the treasurer Michelle Ramos via Venmo (send payment to @Michelle-Ramos-PhD) or via PayPal.com (send to mcramos@fullerton.edu). It is important to designate the payment as "send to friends and family" to avoid processing fees. For all dues, please indicate “ABCT Couples SIG" in the note.

The Couples SIG listserv is used as a forum for academic discussions, therapy referral queries, research-related questions, and coordination of presentations and events at the ABCT Conference in November.

If you would like to be a member of the listserv, you must first join the Couples SIG. Once this process is underway, please contact the media coordinators and request to be added to the listserv. 

If you are already a member of the listserv, you can compose a message by sending it to the email address below.
