Be a Mentor and Come to Breakfast

You can be a part of APA's important work in fostering the careers and development of your younger minority colleagues by joining APA's National Minority Mentors Network.

APA members who are interested in joining the National Minority Mentors Network and are coming to APA's 2009 annual meeting in San Francisco are invited to attend the mentor orientation breakfast for current fellows and medical students on Sunday, May 17, from 7:30 a.m. to 10 a.m. Mentors play an important role in the professional growth and development of beginning psychiatrists and are critical to fostering successful careers in psychiatry and ensuring the field's future success.

There are a large number of residents and medical students attending the mentor breakfast again this year. To make this a worthwhile and enjoyable activity, the commitment and support of APA members are urgently needed.

Those interested in joining or obtaining additional information about the network should contact Marilyn King at (703) 907-8653 or [email protected]. Reservations for the breakfast may also be made by contacting King.▪
