This Task Force has identified important issues and concerns which affect opportunities for women in Pediatrics. The following recommendations are made to address these issues. RECOMMENDATION NO. 1: The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) should appoint a committee to implement long-range plans to further the progress of women physicians in their training, their careers, and role in their Academy. The committee should identify and sponsor issues which concern women members of the AAP including education, academic promotion, establishing practice, midcareer options, and retraining. New and Comments in 1979 and 1980 published solicitations for an expression of interest in a focus for activities and concerns of women pediatricians. The inquiries stimulated responses from women all over the country. When the Academy's Task Force on Expanded Pediatric Careers began in 1978 to analyze the concerns of pediatricians who sought career help, it was evident that there were women Fellows who needed and wanted information and support. Many of the other recommendations of this Task Force can best be handled by a committee of the Academy directed to address the problems that have been raised in this report. Because of the under-representation of women in the American Medical Association (AMA) membership in contrast to the total physician population, the AMA Board of Trustees recently appointed an Ad Hoc Committee on Women Physicians in Organized Medicine. This committee utilized four resources to formulate their report and their recommendations to the AMA Board of Trustees.1: 1. Review of existing data on professional and organizational activities of women physicians (review of the literature and available statistics).
