Before you fill out this form, check out the Public Trust Partners description, the Community Standards, and the Privacy Policy. It is important to review the Community Standards before you fill out this form. 

To join our community, please complete this form and create a PEN name (like Soccergrad, Reader25, or Dad2000) as your username. This will be the way you are known on the site.  Don't use your real name or anyone else's.

Dr. Shanks will use the other requested information to verify you're a real person. Your information remains confidential—your real name and PEN name will never be connected unless legally required (and only after we contest it). This system, along with our Community Rules, ensures everyone can express opinions safely without personal attacks.

Please fill in all the information below. Then scroll down to the very bottom of the page and click the blue box labelled "Click to Join." 

Thank you for applying!

  3. You'll receive a welcome email once approved
