Resident Advocacy Program

Resident Advocacy Program (RAP) a Success!

Thanks to all of the residents who have visited the ACOG District II office in Albany for the Resident Advocacy Program (RAP).  The program, being offered during the 2013 legislative session, offers ob/gyn residents the opportunity to gain a greater understanding of policy and political factors that shape the future of obstetrics and gynecology.  To date, the following residents have participated in RAP:

Albert Einstein College of Medicine
 

Paul Ann Green, MD

 

Tracy Grossman, MD

Jennifer Pitotti, MD

 
Columbia University Medical Center

Laureen Ojalvo, MD

Moeun Son, MD

 
St Luke’s- Roosevelt Hospital Center

Juliet Mushi, MD

RAP participants meet with District II staff, attend workshops, hear lectures and meet with their legislative representatives.  This experience better prepares a new generation of physicians to influence the future of our healthcare delivery system and offers ob/gyn residents a unique opportunity to participate in the political process in Albany.  If you are interested in taking part in the Resident Advocacy Program, contact Katie Gordon, Director of Government Relations: kgordon@ny.acog.org.
