Inaugural National Women in Medicine Day
September 17, 2026
National Women in Medicine Day is designed to move beyond celebration toward visibility, accountability, and systems-level change. It's a day for institutions to elevate women's leadership, share impact data, and commit to meaningful progress. It's a day for individuals to amplify stories, support women-led initiatives, and show up as allies.
Join us September 17 as we celebrate the day with online activations, community spotlights, and ways to take action in your own institution or practice.

WIM's Birthday
March 18, 2027
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!
