Welcome to the Chapter’s first virtual conference! We are so happy that you are joining us for this information-packed conference. Although we know this is not the same as networking with your colleagues at the beach, we hope that these two days provide you with solid information that re-energizes you as you adjust to the many changes we are facing in pediatrics and our world in general right now. The Executive Board is here for you as we navigate these waters together! I thank our CME Chair Haidee Custodio, MD, FAAP, for her efforts in putting together this fantastic line-up of speakers. —-Wes Stubblefield, MD, FAAP, Chapter President
