Messaging USDA Child Nutrition Programs as a Public Health Strategy for Reducing Food Insecurity and Shaping Dietary Behaviors


This activity is brought to you by AzAAP and is designed to provide the best practices in addressing and intervening when patients and families may be vulnerable to food insecurity. The activity will include an overview of trauma informed approaches to communicating with patients and families experiencing food insecurity, and messaging supporting USDA Child Nutrition Programs as tools in improving access to food and nutritious meals.

Accreditation Statement

The Arizona Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics is accredited by the Arizona Medical Association to provide continuing medical education for physicians.

The Arizona Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics designates this live educational activity for a maximum of 1.0 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)™. Physicians should only claim credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.

Successful completion of this CME activity, which includes participation in the evaluation component, enables the learner to earn up to 1 MOC points in the American Board of Pediatrics’ (ABP) Maintenance of Certification (MOC) program. It is the CME activity provider’s responsibility to submit learner completion information to ACCME for the purpose of granting ABP MOC credit.

If you are a board-certified pediatrician seeking American Board of Pediatrics (ABP) MOC Part 2 points, you must take and pass the MOC post-test that is accessible after viewing each program in the series. The CME activity provider will submit participant completion information to ACCME for the purpose of granting ABP MOC credit. Eligibility for MOC Part 2 points includes:

Successful completion of the CME courses associated with the program, which includes participation in the activity, with individual assessment and feedback to the learner, enables the participant to earn 1.00 MOC points. For MOC credit, participants will be asked to complete a post-quiz (based on the content of the live activities) after viewing the on-demand programs. Learners will be provided with up to three opportunities to take and pass the electronic post-test containing a series of multiple-choice questions which correspond with the educational content of the course. Participants must successfully complete the post activity quiz with a minimum passing score of 70% or higher to receive MOC credit for this activity. There is no deadline for completion of the post-test, however participants will not be eligible for MOC credit until the post-test has been submitted. Upon submission of the quiz and verification of the 70% minimum passing score requirement, participants will be granted credit and can access their certificate.

In order to support the professional needs of its members, the AzAAP Continuing Medical Education (CME) program develops, maintains, and improves the competence, skills, and professional performance of pediatricians and pediatric healthcare professionals by providing quality, relevant, accessible, and effective educational experiences that address gaps in professional practice. The AzAAP CME program strives to meet the educational needs of pediatricians and pediatric healthcare professionals and support their lifelong learning with a goal of improving care for children and families.

The AzAAP recognizes that there are a variety of financial relationships between individuals and ineligible companies that require review to identify possible conflicts of interest in a CME activity. The “AzAAP Policy on Disclosure of Financial Relationships and Mitigation of Conflicts of Interest for AzAAP CME Activities” is designed to ensure quality, objective, balanced, and scientifically rigorous AzAAP provided or jointly provided CME activities by identifying and mitigating all potential conflicts of interest prior to the confirmation of service of those in a position to influence and/or control CME content. AzAAP has taken steps to mitigate any potential conflicts of interest.

The AzAAP is committed to providing learners with commercially unbiased CME activities.

All AzAAP CME activities will strictly adhere to the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) Standards for Integrity and Independence in Accrediting Continuing Education. In accordance with these Standards, the following decisions will be made free of the control of an ineligible company: identification of CME needs, determination of educational objectives, selection and presentation of content, selection of all persons and organizations that will be in a position to control the content, selection of educational methods, and evaluation of the CME activity.
