• Equal Representation of Women in Family Medicine

    The American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) confirms its policies on women in family medicine by encouraging women to: (a) continue to enter the specialty of family medicine; (b) participate actively in all AAFP programs and activities, and (c) participate at all levels of leadership, thus ensuring that the personal and professional development of women family physicians is addressed. (B1983) (2020 COD)

    The AAFP and its constituent chapters strive for proportionate representation for women in leadership roles in the AAFP. (1988) (2020 COD)
