Our goals:

APAMSA is the Asian Pacific American Medical Students Association. We are a national organization that aims to address those issues important to Asian-American medical students.

One part of our mission is to bring together Asians and others interested in the health issues that affect Asians so that we may have a strong, collective, public and political voice. We are interested in both directly promoting the health and well-being of the Asian community as well as in helping all health care workers who work with these communities understand how to care for the Asian patient in a culturally sensitive manner.

Finally, APAMSA provides an important forum for APA medical students to meet, exchange information and experiences and develop personally and professionally.
