Our 85 chapters continue to foster an inclusive and diverse environment while offering an active leadership path for all members. Chapters provide an outlet for you to make a difference in health care by creating educational opportunities, helping to influence state legislation, networking with your peers, guiding the next generation of internal medicine physicians and giving back to your community. ACP members continue to come together for professional development activities and personal well-being opportunities organized by each of our 85 chapters.
“I am grateful for the wonderful professional network that I have gained through ACP. Opportunities such as judging the New York State Chapter ACP poster competitions, participating in the resident/fellow committee and joining the International Medical Graduate Task Force have been crucial for my professional growth as a physician, trainee and researcher. The College provides a well-rounded, educational and fostering learning environment for trainees and physicians in practice.”
