Thankful for this amazing group of #climatehealth leaders @PASMeeting
Inspired by all the ways we are meaningfully incorporating climate change into medical education. #climatechangeshealth
So inspired by the powerful words and message of Dr. Roy Guerrero, Uvalde pediatrician, at the AAP. A renewed call to action for gun control to keep our kids safe. We have so much work to do. @AmerAcadPeds @illinoisaap
@Theresa_Chapple@aostaMD So thankful for Dr. Chapple and the well organized machine she out together to get so many shots in kids’ arms this week in Oak Park. She is a true hero!
I was honored today to join @drshoshara representing @illinoisaap in supporting @GovPritzker and @idph and Dr. Ngozi Ezike in supporting the COVID vaccine for elementary school children in Illinois. #thisisourshot@UIHealth. Let's get our kids vaccinated!
@jenniepinkwater@DrShoshara@GovPritzker@IDPH @illinoisaap Thank you to ICAAP, Governor Pritzker and Dr. Ezike for making this big step towards ensuring that all of our elementary school children in Illinois can get vaccinated against COVID!
I need y'all to see and share this UIM excellence! These Black and Latinx pediatricians are coming to a hospital near you!
@NextGenPeds, a resident/fellow-led mentoring program, helped support 100+ UIM 4th yr students through the 1st virtual season & we're just getting started!
In recognition of Earth Day my fifth grade son created an infographic about climate change for his activism project and asked me to spread the word. We can learn so much from the next generation!
Educate. Advocate. Agitate. New life motto care of @staceyabrams - thank you for continuing to inspire us to stand up and fight for our communities and our kids! #AAPAdvocacy2021
Team Illinois met today and practiced all of the amazing skills we have learned in the past two days! #AAPAdvocacy2021 @illinoisaap @RFentonMD @MayaMckeown
"Every system is designed to get the results it gets....it's not by accident." This is why we are here this week--to advocate for children who are harmed by these systems. @priteshgandhimd #AAPAdvocacy2021
“Advocacy doesn’t have to be dazzling and sparkling and on Twitter and TV.” @priteshgandhimd
Grassroots advocacy matters. Every little thing that you do matters to someone. #AAPAdvocacy2021
Attending my first AAP Advocacy Conference! Another item checked off my bucket list. I am so excited to learn from so many outstanding pediatric leaders over the next three days to make some real change for child health. #AAPAdvocacy2021
