Association for Behavioral and Cognitive Therapies Meeting 2006 Report
The 40th annual meeting of the Association for Behavioral and Cognitive Therapies (formerly known as AABT) was held in Chicago, IL this year.
A record-setting attendance for the 40th anniversary of the association's annual convention set the tone for an energetic and exciting scene as luminaries and leaders in the field mingled with the growing numbers of student members.
The windy city lived up to its name, but that didn't keep visitors from braving the chill to attend key sessions and browse the exhibit floor.
Thank you to all of our friends, colleagues, authors, and customers who helped to make this a successful conference. We will look forward to seeing all of you again next year in Philadelphia, PA - November 15-18, 2007!

About the Green Cross
Professor Charles Figley, Editor of the Routledge Psychosocial Stress Series, is also the founder of the Green Cross which emerged in response to the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing.
The Green Cross is fully integrated and coordinated humanitarian organization dedicated to training, certifying, deploying, and educating counselors, other mental health professionals, and other disciplines.
Last year it served alongside the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS). While HSUS went about their emotionally-wrenching job of rescuing animals from Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, the Green Cross teams provided HSUS members with a wide range of psychological first-aid and other support. Earlier in the year, the Green Cross rushed to Sri Lanka to train local people in the basics of crisis intervention and peer support so they could help their fellow citizens recover from the emotional devastation of the tsunami disaster.
The Green Cross sponsors an email forum open to all professionals. Membership requires meeting Green Cross certification, but provisional membership is available immediately and assistance is provided in meeting the standards through a credentials review and/or directing applicants to available Green Cross-endorsed training opportunities.
