The Ambulatory Pediatric
Association fosters the health of children, adolescents,
and families by promoting generalism in academic pediatrics
and academics in general pediatrics.
General pediatrics and generalism concern the whole child in
the context of family and community. Our mission is accomplished
through patient care, academics (teaching and research), and
advocacy.
General pediatric divisions in academic settings have generalism
as their primary focus. Other divisions may also have generalism
as a stated goal; these often include emergency pediatrics,
critical care, adolescent medicine, behavior and development,
and neonatology. We welcome all who share our mission.
