What our Members are Saying

“One of the qualities of the Global Alliance that sets it apart from other organizations is its focus on doing something… I joined because I resonate with the values—the emphasis on social justice, the appreciation of diversity, and the fact that they understand that the complex issues in our society require interdisciplinary solutions.”

Ryan Kilmer, PhD, Clinical-Community Psychology

“Growing up in the inner city, I developed a passion for social justice and social change… I wanted to see communities thrive, flourish… I have realized that one way to move in that direction is to join organizations and to form alliances with those who have similar interests, similar passions. The Global Alliance has a commitment to social change, particularly for the least fortunate members of society. This is one of the reasons I joined the organization.”

Kendell Coker, Clinical Psychology and Law

“Joining the Global Alliance as a doctoral student connected me to a strong, international network of like-minded individuals passionate about health, well-being, equity and justice. Over the past couple of years, I have had the opportunity to collaborate with other students to organize a webinar, write a paper, present my work at the Global Alliance conference and participate in task forces working towards human rights for all.”

Nadha Hassen, Graduate Student, Environmental and Urban Change

“I’ve been a member since 1985… I’m especially interested in the growing involvement of the Global Alliance in global issues particularly in lower resource countries… The Global Alliance is a place to receive support, to network.”

Cynthia Taylor-Handrup, DNP, Nursing

“I’ve been a member of the Global Alliance for about 10 years… I value the fact that it [Global Alliance] includes people from different disciplines, all of whom are concerned about the quality of health services and social justice.”

Mary Armstrong, PhD, Social Work

“It’s been exciting to be a part of a passionate, committed group of individuals who have come together to promote mental health and well-being of vulnerable populations. I’ve enjoyed seeing how these passions play out in policy, research, and action.”

Jacqueline Larson, Graduate Student, Health Psychology

“I want to make a difference in a different way… the mission, values, and goals of the GA align very closely with my own.”

John Sargent, MD, Child Psychiatry
