The Program Committee is responsible for working with the incoming DSPP President to develop the program for the upcoming year.  The yearly topic is chosen by the President.  The program committee then reviews current and classic psychoanalytic literature to identify readings that will be informative and relevant to the program topics and speaker presentations, as well as stimulate discussion at our monthly meetings. The  committee structures a diverse program to meet the needs of our membership. For additional membership information contact Skye Porter Moffitt, Ph.D. at 214-549-8783.

Some of these activities are coordinated with galleries, museums, theaters, performing arts organizations, and universities. Others draw on artistic talents of DSPP members.

The Community Relations Committee (CRC) coordinates DSPP activities with the public-at-large and particular groups such as students, professional organizations, and the media. The CRC works with other DSPP committees to help implement their programs and activities, and it manages its own programs such as the DSPP/Fairhill Scholarship Competition, development of general brochures for DSPP, and the DSPP Web Site. Due to the number of ongoing projects there are several opportunities for members to contribute and additional member participation is welcome.

The editor of the DSPP Bulletin has the overall responsibility for producing the society's newsletter, published monthly during the academic year.  The purpose of the Bulletin is to publicize and review the programs of the society, to announce upcoming events of professional interest, to describe the activities of the officers and committees on the society's behalf, to recognize professional achievements of members, and to report on events at the national level in the Division of Psychoanalysis (39) of APA.

The Bulletin, along with the the DSPP web site, provides a pipeline for the flow of information within DSPP.  The editor works with the Executive Committee, the President, the Program Director, and the Committee Chairs to keep the members informed about the workings of DSPP. 

The newsletter includes announcements of psychoanalytically oriented professional activities free of charge and takes no paid advertising.

For submissions or information concerning the DSPP Bulletin, call Brandy Miller, Ph.D. (Editor) 214-536-7114 or e-mail editor@dspp.com
