"We need to talk..." isn't the best way to get your teens to open up. Topics like body image and mental health can make it hard to kickstart authentic conversations with young adults in our lives. Well, there's now an app for that!

We are heartened by the @FTC's decision today banning noncompete clauses. These employment arrangements are detrimental to the long-term, ongoing relationship family physicians form with their patients and communities. We are analyzing the decision to fully understand the impact on our members. The #AAFP shared the #familymedicine perspective with the FTC: bit.ly/3UaSnI3
We applaud @FTC’s final rule banning physician #noncompete clauses which often harm patients and break continuity of care. This rule will bolster competition and create healthy work environments for physicians while improving access for patients. bit.ly/3UaSnI3
