APA Honors Platinum-Level 100% Club Members
Congratulations to the psychiatry residency programs that achieved Platinum-Level status in APA’s 100% Club this year! The 100% Club was established to encourage residents throughout the United States and Canada to become APA members and take advantage of the variety of membership benefits available to them. (Pictures of the winners can be accessed here.)
The Platinum Level is the highest level of membership in the 100% Club—these are programs that have remained at the 100% Club Gold Level for the past five consecutive years. Gold Level programs have 100% of their residents as APA members. Silver Level programs have 90 to 99 percent of their residents as APA members, and Bronze Level programs have 80 to 89 percent of their residents as APA members.
“I want to thank the residency training directors for emphasizing the benefits of APA membership to their trainees and supporting their efforts to join,” said APA CEO and Medical Director Saul Levin, M.D., M.P.A. “The future of psychiatry depends on the outstanding men and women in our training programs today. That so many of our best and brightest are dedicated to their profession by being involved in APA gives us assurance that psychiatry’s future is strong indeed.”
Residency training programs can expect to receive recruitment materials from APA in the coming months. October 31 is the deadline for enrolling a program’s general psychiatry residents to qualify for 100% Club membership for the current training year. More information is available by contacting Claire Van Wagner at [email protected].
New Benefits Offered
The benefits of 100% Club membership were revamped for the 2016-2017 academic year. They were designed to support the educational and career-development needs of psychiatry residents and build a collaborative community of psychiatric programs.

Updates From the 100% Club Community
New Grand Rounds Benefit Deemed a Success!
“The grand rounds was found to be interesting and engaging. The residents think that more in the future would be enjoyable, as well as informative.” —Jamaica Hospital Medical Center
“The presentation by Mr. Irvin Muszynski [APA’s director of parity enforcement and implementation] was very informative and helpful for us as residents. We discussed various practice opportunities, reimbursement/compensation in practice, and the different APA resources that are available to us as members. He answered all our questions and provided great advice for us in training and for us that are about to graduate.” —Morehouse School of Medicine
“This is an outstanding benefit for our program and community. We gained important knowledge about the process of negotiating for change in mental health resources at the federal level. It was a great way to see how APA is really working in Washington, D.C., to advocate for patients and providers and why it is such an important organization in which to participate. APA is really doing a great job of giving tangible benefits to our members in training. Thanks for the opportunity” —University of Cincinnati Medical Center
