1. Intro
Well, again, it’s been a long time since I have put together a Transition Digest. And activities related to health care transition continue to increase at an accelerating rate – too much to digest.
This issue includes information about upcoming meetings and conferences; an new training program; a few new (or improved) web resources; several article abstracts; and other announcements.
2. Conferences and Meetings of Interest
2A. Special Interest Group on Health Care Transition meeting in Boston during 2012 APS/SPR/APA meeting
The second meeting of the Health Care Transition SIG will be held during the 2012 APS/SPR/APA meeting on Saturday, April 28, 2012 from 8:30 AM – 11:30 AM in the Sheraton Boston Hotel’s Independence West Conference Room. (Interested individuals may attend this SIG meeting without registering for the APS/SPR/APA Meeting.
This meeting will include presentations on best practices in health care transition service delivery, innovative education curriculum design and delivery, creative patient and family engagement strategies and cutting edge research results. In addition youth and families from local advocacy organizations will be invited to attend and there will be opportunities for networking.
The HCT-SIG is co-chaired by a pediatrician (David Wood, MD) and a subspecialist (Maria Ferris, MD, MPH, PhD).
The SIG is open to any members of any of the APS/SPR/APA societies and other interested individuals.
Our vision is to create, through collaboration, research and advocacy, a system of health care that supports the optimal health of youth and young adults with special health care needs and developmental disabilities during transition to adulthood. Our mission is to create a forum to promote discussion, collaboration, research and innovation among scientists, clinicians, advocates, policy makers, as well as youth and families who are interested in improving the health and healthcare of adolescents and emerging adults as they transition from adolescence to adulthood and from child health systems to adult health systems.

2C. Third International Congress on Pediatric Chronic Diseases, Disability and Human Development, Jerusalem, December 02-05, 2012
Conference Announcement:
The Third International Congress on Pediatric and Adolescent Chronic Diseases, Disability and Human Development, which will be held in Jerusalem on December 2-5, 2012. The Congress, sponsored by the Gerry Schwartz and Heather Reisman Foundation, represents the joint collaboration of three leading institutions in the care of children with chronic diseases and disabilities: Hadassah Hebrew University Medical Centers, Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center (a leader in children’s health in the United States) and the Israel National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD).
Leading healthcare professionals from Hadassah, Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center and other guests from Israel and around the world will lecture and conduct symposia on a wide range of topics related to pediatric and adolescent chronic diseases and human development. Specific topics to be addressed include: the management of children and adolescents with chronic diseases, pain management, intellectual disability, autism, impact of chronic disease and disability on human development, shared decision-making, and strategies for ensuring the social and educational enfranchisement of children with chronic diseases or disabilities. Other topics to be discussed include adolescent gynecologic/endocrine disorders, violence, eating disorders, mental illness, and improved quality of care.
The lectures and workshops of the Congress are geared to professionals from all disciplines involved in the care of children and adolescents with chronic diseases and disabilities as well as those involved in the field of human development and public health. The organizers of the conference are inviting the submission of abstracts. Pertinent information about abstracts and other aspects of the conference including registration, lodging, travel arrangements, and additional programs associated with the Congress can be found at the Congress website: www.isas.co.il/chhd.
3. – Training
I am part of an interdisciplinary team that has developed a Certificate Program in Education and Healthcare Transition that is being offered by the University of Florida.
Education and Healthcare Transition Certificate
I am pleased announce that the University of Florida has recently approved an Online Graduate Certificate Program in Education and Health Care Transition (EdHCT), that was developed by an interdisciplinary team with members from the College of Medicine and the College of Education. Three years ago our interdisciplinary team offered an online graduate course that addressed transition of youth with disabilities and chronic health conditions from the perspective of both Education and Health Care. We offered the course for two years and the response from graduate students in Education and in Health Care (nurses, social work, teachers) was so positive that we developed a four course sequence that was just approved by UF as a graduate certificate program.
This program, which will start in the Summer Term (2012) is specifically designed to prepare professionals in-training and those in practice to learn how to work collaboratively to integrate education transition and health care transition for adolescents with special needs. The certificate Program is comprised of 4 online graduate-level courses that may be taken individually, but the certificate will be provided only if all are completed. Students earn graduate level course credits, and UF course fees apply.
This is a unique educational offering, nationally, and should serve to supplement the training currently offered to trainees and professionals from the health professions, education, public health, social work, law, etc. Therefore, I ask that you consider sharing information about our Certificate Program with residents, graduate students and other colleagues so they can enroll for the first course in the Program, which is being offered during UF’s Summer Term.
