SUMMARY:CMSA Northeastern Regional Coalition (2 CEs) - The Truth You Never Knew About “Routine” Male Circumcision
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE\n  \nHosted by Hudson Valley CMSA \nObjectives: \n\nReview circumcision’s roots in American medicine from 19th century Victorian times to the present\, and the procedure’s ongoing promotion despite it being considered “non-therapeutic” by U.S. and international medical organizations.\nDescribe long term psychological and sexual consequences of amputating the male foreskin\, including personal accounts from men and their female partners.\nDiscuss the ethical dilemmas that confront medical and nursing professionals asked to participate in non-therapeutic genital surgeries to which the patient cannot consent.\n\nSpeaker: Georganne Chapin served for 25 years as CEO of Hudson Health Plan\, a nonprofit Medicaid managed care insurer in New York’s Hudson Valley; founded the Hudson Center for Health Equity and Quality—a tech company she still leads—and in 2008\, co-founded Intact America\, an organization dedicated to ending the unethical genital cutting of all children. In 2024\, she published This Penis Business: A Social Activist’s Memoir\, winning a Book Excellence Award in the health category. In the book\, Chapin describes her unusual upbringing and early awareness of circumcision due to a serious complication suffered by her younger brother. Chapin holds a BA in anthropology from Barnard College\, an MA in sociomedical sciences from Columbia University\, and a JD from Pace University School of Law. She also has taught Bioethics at Pace law school and Dominican College School of Nursing.
