Course: The AMA's Strategic Plan for Advancing Health Equity and Justice in Medicine

CME Credits: 0.00

Released: 2022-10-06

The AMA's Center for Health Equity imagines a new way forward for the AMA and US health care that values people equally and treats them equitably. We envision a nation in which all people live in thriving communities where resources work well; systems are equitable and create no harm nor exacerbate existing harms; where everyone has the power, conditions, resources, and opportunities to achieve optimal health; and all physicians are equipped with the consciousness, tools, and resources to confront inequities and dismantle white supremacy, racism, and other forms of exclusion and structured oppression, as well as embed racial justice and advance equity within and across all aspects of health systems. In this video series, you will learn about the AMA's strategic plan and how to be part of our mission to advance health equity and justice in medicine.
