Spring has arrived! Lots of upcoming events happening for PaPS members. Make sure you check the PaPS website often for updates and registration for in-person and virtual events.

We hope you are as excited as the Keystone Psychiatric Forum committee is for the first ever statewide educational conference coming October 9-11, 2026, at the Kalahari Resorts & Conference Center in Pocono Manor. The venue was selected for its family-friend atmosphere, offering members a chance to bring the family, spend a beautiful fall weekend in the Poconos, and enjoy all Kalahari has to offer. On tap for your educational needs will be a multi-day agenda featuring subject matter experts on topics of relevance and offering up to 10.5 CME/CE credit hours. A Women in Psychiatry Networking event, family focused events, a poster competition, and exhibit hall will round out the conference and provide a little something for everyone. We have secured a great overnight rate of $215/night that includes four waterpark passes (a $200 value). Plenty of free parking and activities for all ages. Make plans now to join us in the Poconos this fall.

Don’t forget to join us each month for the PaPS Webinar Series. Held the first Wednesday of each month from 6:30 pm to 7:30 pm, each session features a speaker and topic of relevance to all career levels. PaPS members attend for FREE and can claim up to 1.0 CME credit hours for each session (12.0 CME credits for the year!). Registration is required. Head over to the PaPS website and register today!

If you have not renewed your 2026 membership, fear not – you still can renew through August 31st with no interruption in services. Head over to APA’s membership renewal site and re-activate your membership today.

As always, reach out if you have concerns, ideas, thoughts, or questions.

Be well,

Robbi-Ann M. Cook, CAE
