In 1987, Schoen was appointed head of the Task Force on Circumcision by the American Association of Pediatrics,<ref>American Journal of Diseases in Children, Vol 141: page 128. February 1987</ref> where he pushed for routine infant circumcision, but the neonatologists on Schoen's committee wouldn't go for it.
