The Community Pediatrics and Advocacy Program (CPAP) at The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia teaches residents to become pediatricians who are as comfortable and competent in their role as child advocates as they are in medical practice, who can be effective advocates for an individual child and family, as well as for all children in their community, and who can work in partnership with private and public community-based agencies to promote the well-being of children. Through this educational process, we integrate an expanded focus on community-based pediatrics and advocacy through the Hospital, city, state, region, nation, and world.
