SUMMARY:Substance Use Disorder and the Newborn: Breastfeeding\, NOWS\, and Nursery Care in a Rapidly Changing Landscape
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by the APA Newborn SIG \nThere is significant variability across the country in how to engage with and support families on breastfeeding and infant care in the setting of substance use history. This webinar comprised of providers\, researchers\, and a patient advocate with lived experience aims to illuminate the current protocols for infant feeding in the setting of substance use and substance use disorder\, disparities in breastfeeding support and infant monitoring in the newborn nursery\, reducing bias and stigma in provider-patient communication and contingency planning for infant breastfeeding post-hospital discharge\, and best practices in birthing parent/newborn substances screening and patient navigation for medication-assisted treatment and lactation support. \nPlease grab your favorite warm winter beverage and join us for an informative session with colleagues on the forefront of infant breastfeeding and family support in the setting of substance use and substance use disorder. \nClick here to Register

In this hour-long webinar\, Dr. Ross Cleveland (Dana-Farber Cancer Institute/Boston Children’s Hospital) will discuss what makes these cases so complicated\, ways to conceptualize MN and MCA in CMC\, and share potential strategies to resolution of concerns. There will be case-based and interactive discussion as well as time for Q&A. Discussion may be helpful to general and specialty pediatricians\, please share invitation with anyone who may be interested.” \nClick here to register

SUMMARY:A Values-Based Approach to Negotiate Toward the Career You Really Want
DESCRIPTION:Negotiating Toward the Career You Really Want: A 60-Minute Interactive Webinar \nFeeling stretched\, misaligned\, or stuck in a role that no longer reflects what you value most? Looking for your first or next job? Studies show that professional fulfillment and well-being are linked to whether our daily work feels meaningful and aligned with our core values.

You will learn practical frameworks and strategies to help you move closer to the career you actually want.\n________________________________________\nWhat You’ll Take Away\n• An exercise for clarifying your core values\n• A framework for assessing value misalignment and identifying realistic opportunities to redesign your current (or future) role\n• Negotiation language and strategies that support values-aligned career changes\, even in complex institutional environments\n________________________________________\nWho Should Attend\nThis workshop is ideal for trainees embarking on the job hunt and faculty at any career stage who are seeking greater alignment\, meaning\, and sustainability in their work—and who want practical strategies they can use immediately. \nClick here to Register \n

SUMMARY:Postponed: From Day One to Done Well: Smarter Onboarding for Pediatric HM Teams Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by the PHM Leadership \nOnboarding isn’t one-size-fits-all—especially in pediatric hospital medicine. Whether welcoming a seasoned clinician\, a new resident graduate\, or a PHM fellow transitioning into practice\, honing the onboarding process can make all the difference. This session will explore practical strategies for designing and delivering effective onboarding for physicians (both fellowship and non-fellowship trained) and advanced practice providers\, highlighting how to adapt for varying backgrounds\, prior training\, and levels of experience. Participants will leave with actionable ideas to help new team members feel confident\, connected\, and ready to provide exceptional care from day one. There will also be time for Q&A to share strategies between webinar attendees so all can learn! This session is a collaborative webinar with the APA PHM Leadership SIG with the AAP SOHM Division Directors SIG. \nThis call has been postponed. It will be rescheduled for a later date.

SUMMARY:Addressing Disparities in Pediatric Physician Workforce Diversity: Insights\, Barriers\, and Pathway Solutions
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Thursday\, October 16th\, from 12 – 1 PM ET for a FREE WEBINAR\nRegistration is required \nRegister Now \nThis presentation will focus on addressing the urgent need to increase racial and ethnic diversity within the pediatric physician workforce\, a critical issue given the growing diversity of the U.S. child population. Despite increasing numbers of URiM youth\, representation among pediatricians and pediatric subspecialists remains disproportionately low. The session will explore systemic and structural barriers that hinder URiM students’ progression into pediatrics\, including lack of early exposure\, limited mentorship\, and financial constraints. \nWe will highlight national trends from the NRMP Match and ABP subspecialty data\, the benefits of racially concordant care\, and the importance of identity-concordant mentorship in shaping specialty choice. The session will also present current national initiatives\, including the APPD Confronting Racism Taskforce\, and innovative tools such as the URiM Mentoring Map pathway initiative. Finally\, we will introduce a cross-sectional study to identify mentorship models and program features that most effectively support URiM pediatric trainees from early education through career selection. This session will be relevant for medical educators\, program directors\, faculty mentors\, EDI leaders\, researchers\, and trainees interested in advancing equity in the pediatric workforce. \n\nPresenters:\nTatiana Ndjatou\, MD\nAssistant Professor of Pediatrics\, Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell \nBeth Wueste\, PhD\, MAEd\, LSSBB\nDirector\, Academic Assessment and Compliance\, UT Health San Antonio School of Nursing \nTyler K.
