About Us

The
Kansas Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics (KAAP) is
an organization of approximately 350 pediatricians in Kansas.
Primary activities include advocacy on behalf of Kansas children,
families, and health professionals; providing continuing medical
education and other resources for pediatricians, pediatric specialists,
and other child health care providers; and collaborating with
other state organizations and agencies on programs and projects
that improve the health and well-being of children in Kansas.
Our
mission is the attainment by all infants, children, adolescents,
and young adults of their full potential for physical, mental,
emotional, and social health. Together with those who share this
purpose, the Kansas Chapter pledges its efforts and expertise
to a fundamental goal-that all children and youth have the opportunity
to grow up safe and strong, with faith in the future and in themselves.
