5.5 Extended Maternal Roles in Middle Eastern Families and Cultures
In Middle Eastern cultures (MECs), which are predominantly Muslim, religion, the role and honor of the family, and community identity are deeply ingrained cultural values. This presentation evaluates the factors influencing mothers, the role of extended maternal and family figures in MECs, and considerations in pediatric decision making in clinical practice. This presentation encourages dispelling existing stereotypes, stigma, and bias about MECs, while building a culturally sensitive lens.

Building Bridges: Collaborative Curriculum Development in Pediatric Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry
Pediatric consultation-liaison psychiatry (PCLP) is a required component of child and adolescent psychiatrist education that involves interaction with children with complex physical illness and their families as well as the pediatric healthcare system. The PCLP learning environment not only offers unique training opportunities, but also has specific barriers to effective teaching such as unpredictable workload and lack of dedicated didactic teaching spaces. The AACAP Physically Ill Child Committee (PICC) formed a curriculum special interest group in 2017 to discuss the unique opportunities and challenges of teaching in PCL...

6.3 Demonstration and Role Play
Based on the work of the AACAP Physically Ill Child Committee curriculum special interest group, several self-paced and flexibly adapted modules exist that can be used for learners on pediatric consultation-liaison services. Our session will demonstrate the use of modules in a busy consultation service. (Source: Journal of the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry)

6.4 Using the Modules on a Busy Consultation-Liaison Service
Child and adolescent psychiatrists consulting in pediatric hospitals need knowledge of a broad range of clinical presentations including neuropsychiatric disorders, acute and chronic medical disease, acute behavioral changes, patients boarding pending psychiatric beds, and suicide risk. Child and adolescent psychiatrists need liaison skills with competing stakeholders, knowledge of systems, and the ability to manage an unpredictable schedule. They must recognize stigma and unconscious bias, and they need to develop cultural competence with a diverse patient population. (Source: Journal of the American Academy of Child and ...

Shame, Blame, and Fame: The Impact of Substance Use Stigma on Patients, Parents, Providers, and the Public and What to Do About It
Substance use disorders (SUDs) most commonly onset during late adolescence. An estimated 10% of individuals in need of substance use treatment receive such treatment, even when availability is not the primary barrier. Stigma toward SUDs negatively impacts individuals, families, providers, and the public. This impairs both preventive and treatment efforts among adolescents and families, with minority populations being disproportionately affected. Child and adolescent psychiatrists and other allied health professionals have a unique opportunity to decrease substance use –related stigma. (Source: Journal of the American Aca...

7.1 Addressing the Impact of Substance Use Stigma on Providers
Stigma toward substance use disorders (SUDs) impacts how providers interact with adolescents with an SUD and their caregivers, and their reaction to adverse events associated with SUD, such as overdose. Child and adolescent psychiatrists can decrease the impact of SUD stigma on their practice by changing the language they use to describe SUD, and by developing protocols to respond to adverse events associated with SUD.

7.2 The Multigenerational Impact of Substance Use Disorder –Related Stigma and How to Address It With Families
The adverse impacts of substance use stigma on individuals with substance use disorders (SUDs), including adolescents and parents, are widely known. The specific consequences of how stigma impacts family members or parents of individuals with SUD has been less widely studied and can be underappreciated. Parents of adolescents using substances often experience internal or even external shaming narratives regarding parental competence. Parents who have themselves struggled with substance use often feel shame, embarrassment, and disempowerment pertaining to the impact it has had on their family. (Source: Journal of the Americ...

7.3 The Burden of Stigma for Youth With Substance Use Disorders
The discrimination and stigma faced by youth who suffer from substance use disorders (SUDs) is a barrier to social support, treatment, and education for them, their families, and our society at large. The quest to identify strategies to address these barriers is thus essential for public health. For this presentation, we explore the stigma associated with the diagnosis and treatment of SUDs in young people and interventions to reduce barriers to care.

The recent AAP Blueprint for Youth Suicide Prevention, endorsed by AACAP, highlights the vital role of community-level, cross-sectoral partnerships in addressing youth suicide prevention.

8.1 The Ohio Youth Suicide Prevention Collaborative: A Coordinated Framework to Reduce Pediatric Suicides in Ohio
In Ohio, a youth dies by suicide every 33 hours. In line with national findings, the rate and number of suicide deaths in Ohio youth has increased significantly in the last 10 years. Most impacted were children ages 10 to 12 years, experiencing a fivefold increase. To address this growing concern, the 6 Ohio Children ’s Hospitals joined together with a goal of zero youth suicides in the state. Best outcomes are achieved when hospitals and local communities are mutually engaged and equipped to prevent youth suicides.

8.2 The Texas Youth Depression and Suicide Research Network: A Learning Healthcare System Approach
Depression and suicidal behaviors impact a significant number of Texas youth. The 2017 Youth Risk Behavior Survey data brief showed that Texas high school students had a 66% higher rate of attempted suicide in the past year than those in the United States overall (12.3% in Texas vs 7.4% in the United States overall). In spite of this, the state of Texas currently ranks last in the United States for access to mental health care, such as access to insurance, treatment, and a mental health workforce (Reinert et al, 2022).

8.3 Oregon Suicide Prevention Framework and Big River Programming for Youth Suicide Prevention
Oregon has always been above the national average for youth suicide deaths. The state ’s rate of youth suicide peaked in 2018, when Oregon held the 11th highest rate of youth suicide. In 2019, the state legislature allocated funding and an additional position to youth suicide prevention. Oregon’s efforts to fund and support statewide suicide prevention, intervention, and postvent ion programming—which is now called “Big River Programming”—along with the development of the Oregon Suicide Prevention Framework, have contributed to an important shift in youth suicide trends.

ADHD: Understanding and Addressing Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Diagnosis and Treatment
ADHD is one of the most common neurodevelopmental disorders in children resulting in significant morbidity for both the child and family. Left untreated, ADHD can lead to poorer outcomes in terms of academic, social, and occupational achievement. Despite a national goal to reduce health disparities articulated in Healthy People 2020, significant racial and ethnic disparities exist in the diagnosis and treatment of ADHD. This presentation offers an opportunity to share different approaches to mitigating diagnostic and treatment disparities, to discuss the intersections with policy, antiracism interventions, and the field of...
