You may have already received the sad news that Dr. Bob Burden, one of our longest and greatest contributors to the ISPA mission, has passed away. We were lucky to have him with us again during the Porto Conference last July despite his battle with cancer. We offer our sincere condolences to his wife Pauline Burden and his family who may be fortified by the international recognition and respect he has received for his contributions to school psychology worldwide. Bob was awarded the ISPA 2012 Outstanding International Scholar Award. Please click here to view the award certificate presented to Bob in the summer of 2012 by Peter Farrell.
