Welcome Class of 2030!
The American Medical Women’s Association is an organization which functions at the local, national, and international level to advance women in medicine and improve women’s health. We achieve this by providing and developing leadership, advocacy, education, expertise, mentoring, and strategic alliances.
To empower women in medicine to take a leadership role in the future of healthcare
To learn about opportunities at the state and national level that our AMWA students can participate in to show our support for women in medicine
To encourage both men and women to be a part of our group and learn more about AMWA's impact in healthcare

PATH-AMWA: Physicians Against the Trafficking of Humans
One initiative of AMWA is PATH, which was founded in 2014, to educate physicians, residents, and medical students about issues surrounding sex trafficking. Through the UA COMPHX, we host seminars educating students on the legal and social issues and how to combat this in the office and clinical setting.
