Dr. Ruppert was an outstanding advocate for children with a special interest in early literacy. During her tenure as president of the @OHPediatricians in the 90's she helped establish and grow @reachoutandread in Ohio. We honor her legacy as a champion for children & families.❤️

[Ohio AAP @OHPediatricians]

It is with great sadness the Ohio AAP shares the passing of Dr. Elizabeth "Libby" Ruppert. As a past Ohio AAP president & the namesake for our most distinguished award, we offer our condolences and gratitude for the huge impact Dr. Ruppert had on child health in Ohio and beyond.
