Kim & Doris F. Chang  \nUniversity of Massachusetts Boston  \nThe AAPA annual convention was held atthe University of Massachusetts Boston campus on August 13, 2008, and we are pleased to report that it was a critical success! Approximately 200 participants attended the convention, a rare occurrence for locations outside of California. The fact that more than 30% were first-time attendees, attests to the growth of our community nationally and the strength of our association. These newcomers were welcomed to the meeting and introduced to the association by members of our new Ambassadors program. The Ambassadors program (staffed by volunteers of the Division of Students) was developed as a way of ensuring that first-time attendees enjoyed the conference and had an opportunity to meet other members with similar interests.  \nThe conference theme was“Interdisciplinary Approaches to Resisting Ethnocentrism, Racism and Intersecting Oppressions: Practice, Research, Theory, and Community Interventions”. We jumpstarted the day with a stimulating keynote panel presentation and discussion led by Daniel  \nKanstroom, Rajini Srikanth, and our very own Derald Wing Sue. This interdisciplinary panel representing the fields of law, Asian American studies, and psychology, invited us to grapple with critical issues facing Asian American psychologists today including protecting human rights in cases of deportation, fostering empathy in light of rising concerns about ethnocentrism, and resisting and coping with microaggressions. We were moved, challenged, and energized to examine our own experiences and ideas for addressing these central concerns. The keynote panel set the tone for a day of thoughtful discussion and reflection, as well as sharing and celebration. Below, we offera brief recap of some of the most memorable moments from the convention:  \nThe convention program committee (led by Verna Fabella Hicks and Jocelyn Buhain) created a well-balanced and high-quality program. Some highlights of the program included: presentations on experiences of racism and intersecting oppressions in South Asian, and LGBTQ Asian American communities; mental  \nhealth disparities research based on culturally-adapted empirical treatment models for Asian Americans; and musings from senior scholars on promising directions in Asian American psychology. This year, we initiated the on-line submission system, which brought us out of the Dark Ages and streamlined the process for proposal submission and review!  \nAnother exciting development this year was the infusion ofthe arts into the program through an art exhibit organized by the Asian Mental Health Team of the Cambridge Health Alliance, and a screening and discussion of the film“Never Perfect”(2007) moderated by Christine Iijima Hall. Together, these interdisciplinary programs explored Asian American identities through the use of visual and other creative media.  \nWe continued the past years’ tradition of lunch meetings for Divisions, Task Forces, and special interest groups to create structured opportunities for members to socialize and network.
