AAPA Board of Directors

General Election 2025

Platform statements & candidate survey responses

AAPA is holding its annual election for the Board of Directors and Student Academy Directors

May 19th, 2025 - June 2nd, 2025


Candidates for elected AAPA offices regularly solicit the support of constituent organizations including the LBGT PA Caucus. The Caucus board has chosen not to endorse any specific candidates; instead, our efforts are focused on getting out an informed vote among  the supporters of the Caucus' mission.  

A survey has been developed to assist our members in familiarizing themselves with the AAPA Board of Director candidates and is sent to each candidate. The unedited response is made available below, along with a link to platform materials, and whether they are a Caucus member and/or donor.  

This page will be updated as additional responses are received.
