Diversity, Assuring Sensitivity to Diversity in AAFP Education Activities


The AAFP education process is designed to maintain and improve the ability of family physicians to provide high quality care to all patient populations. As a part of this educational process, the AAFP supports the principle that Academy instructional activities, including CME and patient educational material, as well as guidelines for speakers and presentations at Academy-sponsored functions, should include components that directly address and take into account the unique aspects of diverse populations.
