Dear Faculty:

I am writing to ask your assistance in distributing information about IARP's 
2010 Student Papers for Scholarship and Publication Awards. As we begin the 
2010 academic year, this is an ideal time to remind Rehabilitation Counseling 
Program faculty of this opportunity for graduate students.

As the competition states, IARP and its CM Section held its first competition 
last year with three finalists presenting their papers orally at the Spring, 
2010 conference. All three received cash awards as well as having their 
submissions published in our association's professional journals. In addition, 
the section was successful in getting additional funds for complementary IARP 
memberships for all three students and travel reimbursement funds from their 
geographic chapters to help defer the costs of participating in the 
conference. We are hopeful the same local chapter support can be arranged for 
this year's competition.      

To qualify, doctoral or master's students from your program must submit 7 
copies of their paper in APA 6th edition style (approximately 15 pages of 
text); a cover page giving the student's full name, address, telephone number, 
title of paper; an abstract (150 words maximum); and a written statement from 
the student's faculty advisor verifying current student status and that the 
paper is the sole work of the student. PAPERS MUST BE POSTMARKED NO LATER THAN 
DECEMBER 7, 2010 to be accepted for the competition.  
     
All entries must be free-standing papers, written between January 1, 2010 and 
December 1, 2010. More specific information may be found on the attached 
announcement of the competition.

Thank you in advance for distributing the attached flyer to your program's 
faculty. We hope faculty who required papers as part of their spring papers as 
well as faculty who require papers for the fall to seriously consider 
encouraging students to participate in this professional development 
opportunity. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to 
contact me at your earliest convenience. 

Sincerely,
