Membership

Support

The Association of Native American Medical Students (ANAMS) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization founded to serve Indigenous medical and allied health professional students. Tribal communities are one of the most underserved and underrepresented in the medical professions, and since our founding in 1975, ANAMS has aimed to support and foster a sense of community for Indigenous students on their path to medicine. Financial donations will be used to support organizational operations, our annual conference, as well as member-specific scholarships available to ANAMS members across the country.
