“Obesity, Bias and Stigma in the Doctor’s Offi ce” (Huffi ngton Post, Nov. 2, 2016)

Obesity is highlighted frequently in news media, but headlines increas-ingly are focusing on the societal stig-ma that many people face because of their weight. � e phenomenon of weight stigma is real and has been documented by decades of research.

Unfortunately, this stigma extends to children and adolescents. Body weight has become one of the most common reasons that youths are teased, bullied and victimized. � e harm these experiences cause for

children’s health provides an important opportunity for pediatric health professionals to help address this problem.

� e new AAP policy statement Stigma Experienced by Children and Adolescents With Obesity addresses a timely but often neglected issue aff ecting the qual-ity of life of children with obesity. � e statement, from the AAP Section on Obesity and � e Obesi-ty Society, is available at https://doi.org/10.1542/peds.2017-3034 and is published in the December issue of Pediatrics.

Weight stigma often is propagated and tolerated in society because of beliefs that stigma and shame will motivate people to lose weight. However, rather than motivate positive change, this stigma contributes to behaviors such as binge eating, social isolation, avoidance of health care services, decreased physical activity and increased weight gain, which worsen obesity and create additional barriers to healthy be-havior change.

Dr. Yasuda voted president-elect

by Alyson Sulaski Wyckoff • Associate Editor

When he takes over as AAP president on Jan. 1, 2019, Kyle Yasuda, M.D., FAAP, will draw on three de-cades of experience with the Academy.

Dr. Yasuda, of Seattle, was elected president-elect in the 2017 election. Chair of AAP District VIII since 2011 and a former Washington Chapter president, Dr. Yasuda said his background gives him a great foundation to go forward.

“I believe the Academy is a relationship or-ganization, and I look forward to fostering re-lationships, not only within the Academy but outside,” he said.

AAP Board takes bold steps: adds 3 director seats, clinical data registryby Anne Hegland • Editor in Chief

Now implementing its fi ve-year strategic plan, the AAP Board of Directors took steps during its meeting Nov. 2-3 to diversify board representation and build a clinical child health data registry.

� ree new seats will be added to the AAP Board of Directors under a proposal approved by the board and to be voted upon by the full membership. While details of the process have yet to be defi ned, the board agreed that one seat would be fi lled by a med-ical specialist and another by a surgical specialist.

� e proposal is in furtherance of a goal in the 2017-’18 AAP Strategic Plan calling on the Acade-my to diversify representation on its Board of Direc-tors beyond geographic districts to include a broader array of the organization’s constituencies.

During the fall 2018 national election, members will vote on the proposal to amend the organization’s bylaws and add three seats to the board, which now
