APA Suspends In-Person Meetings for Rest of 2020

APA CEO and Medical Director Saul Levin, M.D., M.P.A., has announced that the Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees has voted to hold all of APA’s scheduled meetings for the rest of the year on virtual platforms. The decision is based on the uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic. The meetings include those of the Joint Reference Committee, Board of Trustees, Assembly Executive Committee, components in September, Assembly, and Area Councils. In addition, Levin and the Executive Committee have restricted all business travel for the remainder the year.

“We have had success with virtual meetings while under ‘stay-at-home’ orders and hope to continue to improve the ability to use technology during this crisis so that we can protect the safety of members and the administration while also conducting business as usual,” said Levin. ■
