ACOFP Leadership:
Meet the 2024-2025 ACOFP Resident Council
The ACOFP Resident Council consists of twelve representatives, elected leaders who act as regional representatives for resident members. The Resident Council’s goals are to facilitate involvement, leadership, and advocacy among residents and their respective state and regional facilities while serving as a bridge between professional organizations regarding resident needs.
On a national level, the Resident Council advocates for the concerns of residents by submitting resolutions to the ACOFP Congress of Delegates. Students may find the Council especially useful as a resource for guidance through the residency program selection and application process.
Selection criteria and processes for these roles are outlined and defined in the ACOFP Bylaws.
