In addition to developing a platform for voicing women’s issues, this group helped women gain recognition and representation in the medical field. And so, the American Medical Women’s Association was born. Even today, there continues to be a pressing need for female role models and mentors, as well as specialized professional development programs. Women need a forum to learn from each other on how to balance multiple roles, a career, and a family. AMWA members share the goal of promoting women’s health and advancement in medicine through advocacy, ensuring that these issues are on the agenda at all levels of government. AMWA physician and student members use their professional expertise and leadership capabilities to persuade and influence legislative bodies on issues affecting women’s health. AMWA acts to initiate change. Join us in our mission as we continue to work towards gender parity in medicine.
