Wellness Resources and Opportunities from UAFP

Dear UAFP Members,

As the staff at Utah Academy of Family Physicians, we are honored to work for the most incredible group of frontline physicians during the COVID-19 pandemic. Your courage and dedication inspire us every day. Thank you.

Leadership Opportunities

Despite all the uncertainties right now, we continue to move forward making plans for the future of the Academy. Some of our dedicated board members' terms are coming to an end in June, and we have vacancies for new board members.

Also, whether the meeting is in person or done remotely, AAFP is planning on holding its annual Congress of Delegates in October and we are looking for UAFP members interested in representing Utah as a member of AAFP's national policy-making body.

If you are interested in either joining our board of directors, representing UAFP at the AAFP Congress of Delegates, or both - please take a moment and fill out this short form indicating your interest.

Taking Time to Care For Yourself

Our staff has also compiled a list of physician wellness resources that includes free and discounted services available to you. We will continue to update this page as we find more resources and encourage you to email us if you know of any resources you would like to share with your fellow physicians.

We hope that you stay safe and stay strong!

Maryann Martindale, Executive Director
Barbara Muñoz, Program Director
