New Pediatric Feeding Online Discussion Group

January 19, 2016 by Krisi Brackett 2 Comments

feed 14You are invited to join an online discussion group dedicated to professionals working with children with pediatric feeding problems.  One goal of the group is to form a national consortium of pediatric feeding programs.  The ultimate purposes of such a consortium would be to facilitate communication among providers, consolidate and share resources, provide opportunities for collaboration, and enable multi-site research collaboration.

 

As a first step, a small group of professionals recently met at Children’s Hospital Colorado.  The group is enthusiastic about a second meeting and would like to extend an invitation to an organizational meeting to be held on Friday, April 8, 2016 at The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia.  There will be more information provided via the discussion group as plans progress.

 

Please invite your staff to click the following link to join the discussion group: https://groups.google.com/d/forum/feeding-programs or reply to this e-mail with the e-mail addresses of those who are interested.  If you don’t have or don’t want to use a gmail address, just let me know and I’ll add your e-mail to the group directly.

Please feel free to forward this e-mail to your colleagues.

 

Thank you,

Sherri
