NIAAH Scholars

The research is clear: more cultural representation in the medical professions leads to greater trust from patients and thus better health outcomes. NIAAH wants to see more African American students enrolled in medical programs and completing their medical training as physicians. But the medical journey can be a difficult one, often fraught with career-limiting challenges.

We help students overcome those challenges.

NIAAH Scholars provides mentorship, academic support, and an interactive student community for African American pre-med and medical students.
