APA Honors Platinum-Level 100% Club Members
Congratulations to the psychiatry residency programs that are Platinum-Level members of APA’s 100% Club. The 100% Club was established to encourage residents throughout the United States and Canada to join APA and to do so with other trainees in their programs.
The Platinum Level is the highest level of membership in the 100% Club—these are programs that have been at the 100% Club Gold Level for five consecutive years. Gold Level programs are those whose residents are all APA members.
New Benefits Announced!
The benefits of 100% Club membership have been revamped for the 2016-2017 academic year. They have been designed to support the educational and career-development needs of psychiatry residents and build a collaborative community of psychiatric programs. More information is posted at psychiatry.org/residents/100-club.

“I want to thank the residency training directors for emphasizing the benefits of APA membership to their trainees and supporting their efforts to join,” said APA CEO and Medical Director Saul Levin, M.D., M.P.A. “The future of psychiatry depends on the outstanding men and women in our training programs today. That so many of our best and brightest are dedicated to their profession by being involved in APA gives us assurance that psychiatry’s future is strong indeed.”
Psychiatry residents and residency training directors should watch their mail for APA’s resident-fellow member membership brochure and the 100% Club informational flyer. Residency programs whose residents are enrolled by October 31 will obtain or maintain 100% Club status.
