Talk to medical schools about ‘Time to Think’

Do you have a personal contact with one of these medical schools? Can you help us make sure that this important book gets read?

We have sent 73 copies of the book to heads of medical schools – but will they read it?

We have sent a copy of Time to Think, by Hannah Barnes, to the head of each of the medical schools that have signed the GLADD Charter on conversion therapy, and to their Vice Chancellors. We know the books have arrived, and now we want to make sure that they get read and talked about. 

We are looking for volunteers who have a specific “in” to talk to these academic leaders; maybe you are a doctor or other medical-school graduate, perhaps you are an alumnus of or an academic at the university, or maybe you know the person personally in some way?

You must be willing to contact the Dean or Vice Chancellor, or both, and to ask for a meeting, in person or by zoom. We will provide you with guidance and support. 

Could you do this for one of these people?
