The residency training program at Bergen Regional Medical Center in Paramus, N.J., is the latest residency program to have all of its psychiatry residents become members of APA.

It joins the ranks of an exclusive organization within APA: the 100% Club. This club was established to encourage residents throughout the United States and Canada to join APA and to do so with other trainees in their programs, according to Deborah Hales, M.D., director of APA's Division of Education and Career Development.

A photo of each program that joins the 100% Club will be turned into a poster and mailed to every medical school in the United States and Canada to encourage medical students to join APA. In addition, programs in the 100% Club receive a major text-book from American Psychiatric Publishing Inc. for each year that all of their residents are APA members and a free online subscription to Focus: The Journal of Lifelong Learning.

Commented William Greenberg, M.D., president of the New Jersey Psychiatric Association, "The Bergen Regional Medical Center proudly announces 100 percent resident membership in APA and the New Jersey Psychiatric Association. This marks the third consecutive year that this 28-resident program has had 100 percent APA membership, signifying a strong tradition of involvement in the local and national psychiatric organizations. The program also recently celebrated its 30th year, with the notable fact that Dr. Javed Iqbal has been the residency training director for 27 of those years."

More information about the 100% Club is available from Nancy Delanoche of APA's Division of Education and Career Development at (703) 907-8635. Programs that are interested in signing up all their residents should also contact Delanoche. {blacksquare}
