strengthening the field

Building the conditions where women in medicine can do their best work.

When women in medicine lead, the whole field gets stronger.

When women are well-represented in healthcare leadership, the care delivered to women patients improves. The connection between who leads medicine and how medicine treats women is not incidental. It is the entire point.

Partnering to Change the Field
Real structural change doesn't happen from the outside looking in. We partner directly with hospitals, health systems, academic institutions, and corporate organizations who are ready to put our research and programming to work inside their own walls, from leadership development for their teams to sponsorship of our national convenings and the Women in Medicine Summit™. These partnerships give institutions a direct hand in building the pipeline they'll one day draw their own leaders from, while giving WIM the reach to bring real structural change to more of the field, faster.

WIM exists at that intersection, advancing the professionals, strengthening the field, and building a healthcare system that works better for everyone in it.

Donations power this work as much as our institutional partnerships do. Every gift helps keep our research independent, our programming accessible to women in every part of the country, and our collective voices focused on the field, not on any single funder's agenda.
