Description

Few studies have evaluated knowledge and attitudes about child advocacy among professionals and trainees in Developmental-Behavioral Pediatrics. We presented a workshop at the 2017 Society for Developmental-Behavioral Pediatrics national meeting with the following topics: social determinants of health, effective advocacy strategies, Medicaid policy, and advocacy initiatives in communities. We assessed participants knowledge and attitudes around advocacy in Developmental-Behavioral Pediatrics.
