The call for you to nominate and recognize and say thanks to a colleague, friend, mentor, or mentee that has served and continues to serve as an advocate for children and the profession of pediatrics is open. Please take the time to help TPS identify and acknowledge those who strive to keep children safe, happy, and healthy.
