APA MEMBER TAKES TO THE AIR

Michael Blumenfield, M.D. (right), chair of APA’s Joint Commission on Public Affairs (JCPA), prepares to begin his live weekly radio program from the APA Annual Meeting Member Resource Center in New Orleans in May. “Talking About Mental Health” airs every Tuesday afternoon from 3 p.m. to 4 p.m. on WVOX-AM from New Rochelle, N.Y., and is rebroadcast Wednesday evenings from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m.

With Blumenfield are his guests from Westchester (N.Y.) Medical Center—Donna Festa, C.S.W., Douglas York, M.P.H., and Neil Zolkind, M.D. The program was part of a JCPA pilot program to test the feasibility of live radio broadcasts from APA’s annual meeting under the theme “Talk About Psychiatry.”
