Are you still looking for ways to get involved in PSYC? Join HGAPS!

Helping Give Away Psychological Science (HGAPS pronounced as two syllables: "H-Gaps") is a 
student-based non-profit (501c3) that is dedicated to helping the best information about psychological science reach the people who would benefit.

Our goal is to build small groups to improve the information about psychology on Wikipedia, on other online sites, and in the community. We aim to make our resources reach the level of the best college textbook on the topic and help the general public, clinicians, clients, and educators each find high quality resources quickly. Other perks of joining HGAPS are having a great resume booster, professional development opportunities, and the chance to network with other students and researchers. You do not have to be a psychology major to join! This semester we will be working on wikipedia pages focusing on:

Positive and Negative Impacts of Teletherapy
Psychology and Law: Criminal Profiling and the Insanity Plea
Minority Mental Health
School-to-Prison Pipeline
Analyzing the Effectiveness of Diversity Training

If any of these topics interest you, please feel free to come to our meetings every Tuesday, 6:30-7:30PM in BPS 1103 (we have free food!). If you are interested in joining, please fill out our membership where you can rank your preference of topics: (https://forms.gle/X9JctgcJoYrs4WGq8).
