This Webpage and the Facebook page for the NDAAP, are two ways that your NDAAP have attempted to improve communication across the State of North Dakota. We welcome any input you may have to improve this website and the FB page.
Every month there will be a posting on the website where your current President plans to answer any questions you may have; this will replace the monthly phone calls instituted several years ago and allow you to access this information whenever you want to and ask questions (form at bottom to submit comments/questions) whenever you want to. The purpose of this change is to make the NDAAP fit your life style and your requirements of an organization that represents you nationally.
DISTRICT UPDATES
Chapter in a Box from District VI Power Point, attached (?), from the District Meeting.

NATIONAL UPDATES
Barbara Bentz will be attending the February 27 AAP Chapter Leaders Fly-In meeting in Washington DC with the rest of the districts across the country. If you have anything you want her to discuss there, let her know at 701/234-3620 or Email.
You will notice we uploaded the video “Monumental” from the AAP, and you are welcome to rebroadcast it in your communities and submit any videos or photos that represent your community, so that can be presented to the AAP.
NORTH DAKOTA FACE OF PEDIATRICS
Your current Vice President is Dr. Kathy Anderson, who has been practicing general pediatrics in Bismarck, North Dakota since 2009. She is the Chair of the Department of Pediatrics at St. Alexius Medical Center and an assistant professor at University of North Dakota School of Medicine. She is also an associate professor at the University of Mary where she provides pediatric content lectures to nurse practitioner students and is adjunct faculty at North Dakota State University where she works with MPH students to develop projects in the realm of maternal infant child health.
GRANTS AVAILABLE FROM THE AAP
For grant opportunities available to AAP members, visit our NDAAP Grants page on our website.
The AAP's CATCH grant database allows you to find information on grants funded through the CATCH Program, the Healthy Tomorrows Program, the Community Pediatrics Training Initiative and the Healthy People 2010 Chapter Grants dating back to 1989. Search for grants by target population, health topic, project activity, state/territory, program, district, and year.
