from Ethical Issues
July 16, 2007 - The American Psychological Association's Society for the Psychological Study of Lesbian, Gay, and Bisexual Issues (Division 44), has invited Robert-Jay Green, Ph.D. to address the APA on how to counter "anti-gay" propaganda.
According to Dr. Green, "Psychologists who are experts on LGBT issues can play a central role in these efforts by: (1) Conveying accurate psychological information about LGBT issues to the news media; (2) Contributing to the development of LGBT-affirmative legislation and providing expert testimony at legislative hearings; (3) Serving as expert witnesses in court cases that set legal precedents on LGBT issues; and (4) Actively consulting with local community organizations (such as schools, churches, workplaces, healthcare settings) about programs/policies that negatively effect or could improve the well-being of LGBT persons."
Dr. Green is a professor of clinical psychology at the California School of Professional Psychology.
