AAHPM’s Four Commitments to DEI

  1. AAHPM creates a welcoming environment in which all members see themselves reflected in the work of the organization and all individuals and communities can join together to support one another.
  2. AAHPM is committed to building a community and field that is diverse across many dimensions, including but not limited to age, gender, gender identity, ability, education, ethnicity, nationality, political opinion, professional experience, race, religion, sexual orientation, and socioeconomic status.
  3. AAHPM creates spaces for difficult conversations, hearing all voices, and providing leadership where it is needed in our governance, membership, operations, and programs, resulting in the delivery of culturally effective, respectful, and high-quality care to all.
  4. AAHPM is committed to supporting and sustaining an environment that facilitates and maintains open dialogue, learning, leadership, and growth for all of our members.
