Women in professional schools and careers face additional challenges relative to their male peers. AMWA was founded over a century ago to be a unified voice that speaks to the needs and rights of female health professionals and their female patients.

Through volunteer work, philanthropy, promotion of women's health, and direct contact/mentorship programs with professionals in healthcare, our members learn how to become better and stronger applicants for medical school, PA school, nursing school, PT school, and more. We welcome you to join us in expressing our voice in the 21st century!
