Description

The AACAP Educational Outreach Program for Child and Adolescent Residents provides the opportunity for child and adolescent psychiatry residents to receive a formal overview to the field of child and adolescent psychiatry, establish child and adolescent psychiatrists as mentors and experience the 2025 AACAP Annual Meeting, October 20-25, 2025. Participants will be exposed to the field of child and adolescent psychiatry, including research opportunities, access to mentors, and various networking opportunities. Applicants must be enrolled in a residency program in the United States at the time of the AACAP Annual Meeting in October 2025; residents in their first or second year of child fellowship training as of July 2025 are eligible. Triple Boarders at the PGY4 or PGY5 level, and Pediatric Portal Pathway residents at the PGY4 plus level, as of July 2025 are also eligible. Participants must attend all Annual Meeting events specified by AACAP, during the dates of Tuesday thru Friday of the meeting, and are required to sign up as an Annual Meeting monitor. While past Educational Outreach Program awardees are eligible to apply, priority will be given to first time applicants. The applicant's CAP Fellowship Program Director must also upload a completed Training Verification and Endorsement form indicating good standing from the applicant's training program, along with a letter of support. The letter should indicate how long the faculty member or mentor has known the applicant and in what capacity. In describing the candidate, it would be helpful for the letter to address the applicant's training, qualifications, accomplishments, interest in the child and adolescent psychiatry specialty, motivation for this award, and the potential benefits of the candidate attending the Annual Meeting, as appropriate. It is also optional but applicants may also submit a Letter of Shared Funding. Please visit the award's website or contact the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry for more information.
