AAFP Student Leadership

The AAFP has numerous students in leadership positions, all of whom help the Academy fulfill its mission and strategic plan. This section is intended to showcase the student leaders of the AAFP in a way that allows other medical students the ability to recognize who represents them at a national level, connect with peers and understand what impact their leadership positions have on the Academy and other medical students.

For specific information about each of these positions, be sure to read Getting Involved in Your Academy, a publication produced annually by the Division of Medical Education.

Please contact Jennifer Galt for more information.
