Women in Medicine® was founded on a simple belief: women in healthcare deserve a pipeline to leadership — not just a seat at the table, but the platform, training, and community to shape the conversation.

Join us online on March 18 as we celebrate our 9th birthday and the community that's made it possible.

We'll share stories, reflect on our impact, and offer ways to support our work as we vision for the future of all women in medicine.

Make a gift to WIM and keep our mission bright all year long!
