Founded in 1930, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) is a professional membership organization of 66,000 pediatricians committed to the optimal physical, mental, and social health and well-being for all infants, children, adolescents, and young adults.

AAP also oversees HealthyChildren.org, the only parenting website backed by pediatricians, and has the largest pediatric publishing program in the world, with more than 300 titles for consumers and over 500 for physicians and other health care professionals, including Pediatrics, its monthly scientific journal, and AAP News, its membership news magazine.
