APA's 100% Club Gains Another Member Program

The University of Toledo's general psychiatry residency program has joined APA's 100% Club.

The program, at the Ruppert Health Center on the Health Science Campus at the University of Toledo in Ohio, is headed by Kristi Skeel Williams, M.D., director of the residency program, under the leadership of Marijo Tamburrino, M.D., chair of the Department of Psychiatry.

“We are so pleased,” said Tamburrino, “that our diverse and talented residents all recognize the importance of being part of the American Psychiatric Association, an organization that is committed to education and advocacy, supporting the needs of both physicians and patients.”

APA's 100% Club was created to encourage the directors and chairs of psychiatry residency training programs to promote APA membership to their residents. Today programs that reach the goal of having all residents join APA receive a group photo on a wooden plaque. Also, each program in the 100% Club receives a major psychiatric textbook, and residents get a one-year subscription to Focus: The Journal of Lifelong Learning for each year all the residents are APA members. The textbook and journal are published by American Psychiatric Publishing Inc.
