Pediatric Resident Advocacy

The Center for Health Policy and Advocacy Resident Branch provides a space for resident advocacy at Baylor College of Medicine/Texas Children’s Hospital. We host quarterly meetings to discuss important advocacy topics, engage residents in various types of advocacy (social media advocacy, written advocacy with policy briefs, blog posts, and Op Eds, legislative advocacy, and institutional advocacy), and to learn from advocacy experts in Texas. We also write and disseminate a monthly advocacy newsletter featuring relevant advocacy topics and highlighting advocacy opportunities for residents.
