Celebrate Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
We work every day to advance excellence by recruiting and retaining diverse team members, fostering an inclusive workplace, and making equitable and socially responsible decisions.
“We are committed to ensuring that the AAMC is doing everything we can to create an equitable, fair, and respectful environment at the AAMC where each of us feels safe and valued."
David J. Skorton, MD, AAMC president and CEO
Diversity, equity, and inclusion matters within and beyond our own walls. We collaborate with our members and their communities to make progress toward health equity, address public health crises, and ensure that all people can access the care they need from a dynamic physician workforce.
“As a member of the DEI Council, you can see the efforts that the AAMC is putting towards making sure we are a diverse, equitable, and inclusive place for all employees. These efforts have given me a space to voice my opinion and the opinions of others to help better our environment. Additionally, the council's work has strived to address the most pertinent issues within the AAMC to ensure there are avenues for addressing any future issues that may arise.”

They advocate for the common needs of their members, foster professional development, become a valuable resource internally, and provide safe spaces that facilitate community-building and provide support for underrepresented and/or underserved identities within the AAMC.
- The Culture Advance Team (CAT) is a critical partner to the Leadership Team in enhancing and evolving the internal culture that reinforces and supports the core values and strategy of the AAMC.
- The AAMC Framework for Addressing and Eliminating Racism at the AAMC, in Academic Medicine, and Beyond outlines four pillars of work that will guide the association’s efforts to create a shared vision of the AAMC and academic medicine institutions as diverse, equitable, inclusive, and anti-racist organizations.
- AAMC Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Initiatives cultivate a diverse and culturally prepared workforce, advance inclusion excellence, imbue equity-mindedness, and enhance engagement with local communities.
