justin schreiber American Academy of Child & Adolescent Psychiatry Jill Brafford Meet Anneke Archer, #CAP_MSR guiding light and American Academy of Child & Adolescent Psychiatry manager of Training and Workforce Development! Please shower her with thanks and love when you see her - we wouldn’t be able to put on such wonderful #psychtwitter #mentorship programs at #AACAPCACAP22 without her!

New friends and familiar faces at the first in-person meeting of JAACAP Open’s inaugural editorial board, led by Manpreet Kaur Singh, MD MS. #aacapcacap22
