- ANA Mentorship Program
Dear ANA community,
The Asian Neuropsychological Association (ANA) Education Subcommittee seeks to counter the underrepresentation of Asian individuals in the field of neuropsychology by providing education and mentorship to the next generation of neuropsychologists (e.g., graduate students, externs, interns, and postdoctoral fellows).
We are excited to announce the rollout of the *ANA Mentorship Program*.
We strive to serve our community’s needs, and have developed the program with this in mind. A small focus group composed of the ANA Student Committee provided essential input in helping us form the mentorship program’s objectives and goals. We value this spirit of collaboration, and will continue coordinating efforts with the Student Committee.
*Call to action: Please review the attached invitation letters for interested mentors and mentees for an expanded description of the mentorship program. You may apply by completing the questionnaire form provided in the document.*
Any questions can be emailed to: anaeducationcomm@gmail.com <anaeducationcomm@gmail.com>
Sincerely,
*Asian Neuropsychological Association Education Committee*
