Empower Your Advocacy: Introducing Our Comprehensive Toolkit  

(August 2024) We are excited to announce the launch of our Advocacy Toolkit: Using Your Voice as a Physician Advocate, a powerful resource designed to equip medical students and physicians with the skills and knowledge needed to become effective advocates for health care in their communities. This toolkit comprises five self-contained and independent modules, each presented as engaging voice-over PowerPoint presentations. Whether you're a seasoned advocate or new to the field, these modules offer valuable insights and practical guidance.  

Module Highlights  

Physician as Advocate  

  • Discover advocacy tips and real-life examples that showcase how physicians can use their voice to drive positive health outcomes in their communities. This module emphasizes the pivotal role of physicians in advocating for public health.  

Legislative Advocacy  

  • Gain a comprehensive understanding of the legislative process at both state and federal levels. Learn about the opportunities available for physician advocacy within this process and how to navigate the legislative landscape effectively.  

Print Media Advocacy  

  • Explore the various types of print media, their audiences, and their scope in the realm of advocacy. This module provides insights into crafting compelling messages that resonate with readers and drive change through traditional media channels.  

Social Media Advocacy  

  • Delve into the dynamic world of social media and its potential as a powerful advocacy tool. Learn about the key features of different social media platforms and how to leverage them to amplify your advocacy efforts and engage a broader audience.  

Audio Media Advocacy  

  • Understand the motivations and uses of audio media in advocacy. This module focuses on the unique advantages of podcasts, radio, and other audio formats, offering strategies to effectively communicate your advocacy messages through these channels.  

Each module begins with a standard introduction and overview, followed by an in-depth exploration of the topic, and concludes with a concise one-page outline to reinforce key points.  

Toolkit: Using Your Voice As A Physician Advocate 

By integrating these modules into your advocacy efforts, you will be better equipped to influence public health policy and drive meaningful change. Empower yourself and your community with the tools and knowledge provided in our Advocacy Toolkit.  

Together, let's make a difference! 


State Health Advocacy August Recess Grassroots Mobilization Challenge 

(August 2024) Members of Congress are returning home to their districts during the August congressional recess. During this time, 바카라 사리트 is calling on internal medicine physicians to engage their representatives on important issues we need Congress to act on before the end of 2024. 

To incentivize participation in this grassroots mobilization, the Advocates for Internal Medicine Network (바카라 사리트 grassroots network) is challenging members to see which states will have the highest engagement. Advocates can score points for their states by choosing to take one or more advocacy actions identified in the campaign.

Call for Spring 2025 Resolutions 

(July 2024) Are you concerned about a practice or clinical issue or have an idea you would like to suggest? If so, you might consider submitting a resolution to your Governor or chapter council.  

Initiating a resolution provides 바카라 사리트 members an opportunity to focus attention at the 바카라 사리트 national level on a particular issue or topic that concerns them. Participating in the Board of Governors resolutions process provides the 바카라 사리트 grassroots member a voice and allows you to shape College policy that impacts the practice of internal medicine.  

Not sure how to begin drafting a resolution? Researching the College's position on an issue can give you a start. The 바카라 사리트 Board of Governors Resolutions Guide for 바카라 사리트 Members is available to download and will help, too. The Guide was created to provide members a short overview of the resolutions process essentials and highlights critical 바카라 사리트 online resources you must use.  

Once drafted, members must submit resolutions to their Governor and/or chapter council. Chapter council approval is required to move resolutions forward to 바카라 사리트 national. Although not official 바카라 사리트 policy, a resolution becomes property of the chapter once the chapter council approves forwarding it to national. If effecting change interests you, the deadline for submitting new resolutions to be heard at the Spring 2025 Board of Governors Meeting is September 27, 2024

Share your good idea with us. Draft a resolution.

(May 2024) Your 바카라 사리트 Chapter thanks you for your continued Membership and all you do every day to serve your patients and support the future of internal medicine. We’re proud that you’ve chosen us as your professional home, and we’re committed to remaining by your side—advocating for and supporting your professional journey.


BOR Action on Spring 2024 BOG Resolutions

(May 2024) A summary of Board of Regents (BOR) actions on resolutions debated at the Spring 2024 Board of Governors (BOG) meeting is now available. Resolutions initiated by 바카라 사리트 members and endorsed by a chapter council and the BOG become 바카라 사리트 policy when adopted by the BOR.

If you have an idea you would like to suggest to 바카라 사리트, consider submitting a resolution to your Governor or local 바카라 사리트 chapter. Visit the advocacy section of your 바카라 사리트 chapter website for more information on how to propose a resolution.


2024 John Tooker Evergreen Awards

(April 2024) The John Tooker Evergreen Awards Program provides opportunities to recognize the valuable contributions of 바카라 사리트 Chapters as they strive to enrich, educate, and engage membership. In 2024, 바카라 사리트 recognized ten winning chapters. Our Chapters received the 2024 John Tooker Evergreen Award for our initiative, Narrative Medicine Collaboration (California Southern I, II, III) and Live Your Best Life Program (California Southern III, a joint program with the North Carolina Chapter.

Narrative Medicine Collaboration  

New narrative medicine programming and scholarly activities have generated excitement and engagement from all membership classes across Southern California Chapters. We capitalized on this to create a supportive and welcoming community for those that enjoy the power of stories, reflections, and creativity through a narrative medicine competition in conjunction with the 2022 Southern California Chapters’ Annual Meeting. The Chapter has threaded narrative medicine events throughout the year to incorporate distinguished faculty and well-being champions as judges, mentors, and collaborators. Unique partnerships and collaborations with published authors and faculty have opened up wonderful opportunities for mentorship, publication, workshops, and discussion for competitors (particularly for MS, RFM, and ECP members) within Southern California and beyond it.

Live Your Best Life Program    

The Live Your Best Life (LYBL) Program utilized sessions and created a platform to promote leadership development, communication skills, professionalism, mentorship (including peer mentorship), networking opportunities, and promotion of well-being for nearly 60 invited Resident/Fellow and Early Career Physician members from across 23 Chapters. Educational content and mentorship were provided through nine separate sessions by a group of expert physician coaches, Well-being Champions, national, and local 바카라 사리트 leaders. This program focused on building skill sets, tools, and resources to help RFM and ECP members navigate transitions and significant decisions within their professional and personal lives. In addition, we were able to build a safe and supportive space to foster belonging, connection, and a sense of community among all participants through virtual and in-person meetings. 100% respondents to our survey would recommend The Live Your Best Life program to a colleague and 100% agreed or strongly agreed that it provided an opportunity to reflect on professional development and improved their understanding of how to use personal strengths and values to design a fulfilling career. Future plans include continuing development of the program and expansion of the LYBL community to include those at different career stages and intentional inclusion of additional membership groups.

For more information on the John Tooker Evergreen Awards, contact Dana Acord.

The most important considerations for 바카라 사리트 Fellowship are excellence and contributions made to both medicine and to the broader community in which the internal medicine physician lives and practices. 


Member Feedback is Requested on Spring 2024 Resolutions

(February 2024) Twenty-one (21) resolutions will be considered at the Spring 2024 Board of Governors (BOG) Meeting. With the exception of Resolution 9-S24, which will not be debated because this resolution is slated for adoption as a reaffirmation, please review each resolution and then indicate your support or opposition by completing the  by the deadline your 바카라 사리트 Chapter Governor has requested or by midnight March 13, whichever comes first. 

Your comments will be forwarded to your Governor to be used as part of his/her testimony on behalf of the chapter. If you have any questions, please contact Mary Giampietro, BOG Administrator, at chapter@acpmembership.org. Thank you for your input. 

(NOTE: Proposed resolutions should be considered confidential information and are intended to be viewed by 바카라 사리트 members only. Under no circumstances should proposed resolutions be shared with the news media or social networking media, nor should they be shared with other individuals and organizations. Proposed resolutions do not represent 바카라 사리트 policy.)


Call for Fall 2024 Resolutions

(February 2024) Are you concerned about a practice or clinical issue or have an idea you'd like to suggest? If so, you might consider submitting a resolution to your Governor or chapter council.  

Initiating a resolution provides 바카라 사리트 members an opportunity to focus attention at the 바카라 사리트 national level on a particular issue or topic that concerns them. Participating in the Board of Governors resolutions process provides the 바카라 사리트 grassroots member a voice and allows you to shape College policy that impacts the practice of internal medicine.  

Not sure how to begin drafting a resolution? Researching the College's position on an issue can give you a start. The just released 바카라 사리트 Board of Governors Resolutions Guide for 바카라 사리트 Members is now available to download and will help, too. The Guide was created to provide members a short overview of the resolutions process essentials and highlights critical 바카라 사리트 online resources you must use.  

Once drafted, members must submit resolutions to their Governor and/or chapter council. Chapter council approval is required to move resolutions forward to 바카라 사리트 national. Although not official 바카라 사리트 policy, a resolution becomes property of the chapter once the chapter council approves forwarding it to national. If effecting change interests you, the deadline for submitting new resolutions to be heard at the Fall 2024 Board of Governors Meeting is March 29, 2024. 

Share your good idea with us. Draft a resolution.

(July 2023) Congratulations to the Chapter's new Fellows. Fellowship in the College is an honor. Being an F바카라 사리트® is a distinction earned from colleagues who recognize your accomplishments and achievements over and above the practice of medicine. The most important considerations for 바카라 사리트 Fellowship are excellence and contributions made to both medicine and to the broader community in which the internal medicine physician lives and practices.


Call for Spring 2024 BOG Resolutions

(July 2023) Are you concerned about a practice or clinical issue or have an idea you'd like to suggest? If so, you might consider submitting a resolution to your Governor or chapter council.  

Initiating a resolution provides 바카라 사리트 members an opportunity to focus attention at the 바카라 사리트 national level on a particular issue or topic that concerns them. Participating in the Board of Governors resolutions process provides the 바카라 사리트 grassroots member a voice and allows you to shape College policy that impacts the practice of internal medicine.

Not sure how to begin drafting a resolution? Researching the College's position on an issue can give you a start. The recently released 바카라 사리트 Board of Governors Resolutions Guide for 바카라 사리트 Members is now available to download and will help, too. The Guide was created to provide members a short overview of the resolutions process essentials and highlights critical 바카라 사리트 online resources you must use.  

Once drafted, members must submit resolutions to their Governor and/or chapter council. Chapter council approval to move resolutions forward to 바카라 사리트 national is required. A resolution becomes a resolution of the chapter once the chapter council approves forwarding it to national. If effecting change interests you, the deadline for submitting new resolutions to be heard at the Spring 2024 Board of Governors Meeting is October 16, 2023.  

Share your good idea with us. Draft a resolution.

California Southern III Region Receives the Mary Bieter Evergreen All Stars Award

(May 2023) The Mary Bieter Evergreen All-Star Awards recognized exceptional and sustained chapter-initiated programs that supported and adapted to the Internal Medicine landscape in the United States and around the world. 바카라 사리트 Members were asked to review and select All-Star nominations they believed were worth of recognition. The California Southern III Region received the Mary Bieter Evergreen All-Star Award for their initiative, The DEI Shift Podcast, Changing the Way We Think, Talk and Practice Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. 

The DEI Shift Podcast, Changing the Way We Think, Talk and Practice Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

The DEI Shift podcast was created to change the practice of diversity, equity, and inclusion within medicine. It is intentionally led and produced by an extremely diverse team from pre-medical students to attending physicians from various racial, ethnic, religious, linguistic, geographic, and specialty backgrounds. Monthly team meetings facilitate educational and professional development opportunities as well as sense of belonging and inclusion. 

Over four seasons, a global audience has downloaded over 18,250 podcast episodes across 6 continents, in 81 countries and nearly 2000 cities. A wide range of topics and guests have been featured in enduring learning materials increasing awareness, advocacy, cultural humility, and empathy. This innovative educational platform has led to multi-Chapter, cross-specialty, and interdisciplinary collaborations as well as increased member engagement, mentorship, connections, and leadership development. It has successfully promoted the goals, core values, and DEI-related strategic priorities of the American College of Physicians and the 바카라 사리트 Southern California Region III Chapter.


California Southern III Region Receives the 2023 John Tooker Evergreen Award

(May 2023) The John Tooker Evergreen Awards Program provides recognition and visibility to chapters that have successfully implemented programs to increase membership, improve communication, encourage member involvement, enhance diversity, foster careers in internal medicine or improve chapter management. The California Southern III Region received the 2023 John Tooker Evergreen Award for their initiative, Wellness Wave.

Wellness Wave

It empowered the students to connect with mentors, experts, and their colleagues locally and nationally and allowed the creation of a platform for them to share the fruits of their labor and hard work.

The Southern California Region III's Wellness Wave was a "for us, by us" student-driven initiative led by the Council of Medical Students to empower medical students to connect with mentors, experts, and their colleagues locally and nationally to develop 38 student-led interview videos and a separate Wellness Wave website. It was created to engage medical students/residents to decrease feelings of isolation, burn out, anxiety, depression, imposter syndrome, and perfectionism. Local and national faculty, leaders, and mentors were interviewed on their journeys in medicine, asked about career advice, and best practices on creating and maintaining wellness. The Chapter collaborated with three additional 바카라 사리트 chapter to accomplish the Wellness Wave strategy.

One of the goals of the American College of Physicians is to “recognize excellence and distinguished contributions to internal medicine.” As a way of achieving this goal, the College offers 21 awards and a number of Masterships each year. Annually, awardees and Masters are honored at the Convocation ceremony held during the Internal Medicine meeting.


Congratulations to Chapter Members on Receiving National Awards or Mastership

(October 2022) We are excited to share that the Mastership and Awards Committees and the Board of Regents have approved the following chapter members to receive an award recognition during the 2023 Internal Medicine Meeting in San Diego, California.

Jane F. Desforges Distinguished Teacher Award

Lawrence K. Loo, MD, M바카라 사리트, Southern California Region II

The award is bestowed upon a Fellow or Master of the College who has demonstrated the ennobling qualities of a great teacher as judged by the accomplishments of former students. These students should have been inspired by the nominee and achieved positions of influence in the field of medical education, primarily as teachers. If the awardee has not previously been elected to Mastership, it will be awarded when elected.

Masterships

바카라 사리트 Bylaws state that Masters shall be Fellows who have been selected because of “integrity, positions of honor, impact in practice or in medical research, or other attainments in science or in the art of medicine.” Masters must be highly accomplished persons demonstrating impact in practice, leadership, or in medical research. Evidence of their achievements can come from many types of endeavors, such as renown within their field and/or 바카라 사리트 chapter, research, education, health care initiatives, volunteerism, administrative positions, care of patients, and service to their community.
