Here’s how it works!
The Chapter’s ad hoc firearms injury/death prevention advocacy committee is excited to move forward with yet another step in its efforts to support pediatricians in the area of advocating to parents/families on safe firearms storage. To that end, we are rolling out a Chapter Challenge at the 2024 Annual Meeting: ‘Locking Arms: Alabama Pediatricians Keeping Kids Safe.’”
To participate, complete the form below; your sign-up is a commitment to work on this issue in their own practice between now and the Annual Meeting & Fall Pediatric Update (September 12-14, 2025)
Anyone who signs up will receive a T-shirt at the next conference they attend (2025 Spring Meeting, Annual Meeting, etc.)
You are challenged to complete three basic steps/activities to receive points for your participation
Anyone with at least three “points” will be recognized in the Chapter newsletter
Any Chapter member with at least with at least 10 points, will get three additional T-shirts, which can be shared with his/her practice team
“Basic” points can be earned as follows:
Two points for watching our September 24, 2024 webinar ecording - click here to watch
One point for a social media post made on practice/clinic website using BeSmart or other resource materials promoted by Chapter (click here for those we have curated thus far; those who sign up will receive emails to update them when new resources are posted)
Another point for a second social media post
Extra points (participants must fulfill their three primary activities before these) will be given as follows:
One point for watching a recording of one of the previous Chapter webinars (or having attended live) held in 2023-2024 (see resource page here)
One point each for additional social media posts
Participants will be asked to complete an online form to report their activities with the Chapter.
