The National Medical Association invites all African American and concerned physicians to find their own special role in the ongoing struggle for community health. Any area from mental health to
social action can benefit from your interaction. We all have reaped the harvest of the hard work and love of those
who went before us. In this new millenium, let us set the standard for involvement in the health and longevity of our community. Mission Statement Our mission is to:
- Prevent the diseases, disabilities, and adverse health conditions that disproportionately or differentially impact African American and underserved populations.
- Support efforts that improve the quality and availability of healthcare to
poor and underserved populations.
- Increase the representation and contribution of African Americans in
medicine.
Company Background The National Medical Association was created out of the desire for African-American physicians to have a voice in
the health and welfare of their own community. Over 104 years later, we are still here and going strong. |
