Our Vision

To be the forum in which PEM Division Chiefs and/or Section Heads actively and openly communicate with one another.

Our Mission

To create and foster a long-standing forum within the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) Section on Emergency Medicine (SOEM) in which PEM Chiefs and Medical Directors from the U.S. and Canada can collaborate, share and communicate clinical, administrative, and academic best practices, data, innovations, and lessons learned to empower members to leverage the collective knowledge and elevate the standard of care and patient experience provided by member organizations.
