Another Residency Program Joins APA's 100% Club

The residency training program at Lincoln Medical and Mental Health Center in New York City is the latest residency program to have all of its psychiatry residents become members of APA.
It joins the ranks of an exclusive organization within APA: the 100% Club. This club was established to encourage residents throughout the United States and Canada to join APA and to do so with other trainees in their programs, according to Deborah Hales, M.D., director of APA's Division of Education and Career Development.
A photo of each program that joins the 100% Club will be turned into a poster and mailed to every medical school in the United States and Canada to encourage medical students to join APA. In addition, programs in the 100% Club receive a major textbook from American Psychiatric Publishing Inc. for each year that all of their residents are APA members and a free online subscription to Focus: The Journal of Lifelong Learning.

The director of residency training at Lincoln is Brunhild Kring, M.D.
“Originally founded in 1839, Lincoln Medical and Mental Health Center has been dedicated to the care of the poor and the disadvantaged in New York City for more than one and a half centuries,” Kring said. “Its present modern building was dedicated in 1976. The program, which is in association with Weill Medical College of Cornell University, provides residents with the best of academic, intellectual, and experiential learning and skills training. It draws strength from the diversity of its staff and community. At the heart of our program are the residents themselves, who reach out to the community and who care for their patients with compassion, integrity, respect, and excellence.”
More information about the 100% Club is available from Nancy Delanoche of APA's Division of Education and Career Development at (703) 907-8635. Programs that are interested in signing up all their residents should also contact Delanoche.
