AGPA is an interdisciplinary community that has been enhancing practice, theory and research of group therapy since 1942. The American Group Psychotherapy Association's 2008 conference provided participants from diverse clinical disciplines the opportunity to advance their knowledge, skills and training in group psychotherapy and related fields. The Annual Meeting experience included the development of new clinical approaches, refinement of therapeutic methods, exchange of clinical and empirical knowledge with colleagues, exposure to current research and theory, and the opportunity to participate in a multidisciplinary peer support network. AGPA offers Continuing Education Credits for each of these sessions. For more information visit the AGPA Store at http://tinyurl.com/agpa2008.
