In addition to the national organization, pediatric programs in APPD are divided into regions. These regional groups have leadership opportunities, meetings, and activities, which are a vital part of the APPD. Regions are led by two or more regional chairs from different member categories (program director, associate program directors, coordinator, etc.).
