- April 22: Dr. Jessica Peck and collaborating experts will share information about the recently published Core Competencies for Human Trafficking Response in Healthcare and Behavioral Health Systems.

NAPNAP Partners for Vulnerable Youth and NAPNAP are proud to jointly sponsor this TeamPeds Town Hall. Registration is required.Â
- May 20: Dr. Todd Wolynn will speak about sharing clear, concise, evidence-based information on the power and importance of vaccines, especially on social media and how to prepare for negative feedback. NAPNAP’s Immunization SIG proudly sponsors this TeamPeds Town Hall. Registration is required.Â
