About Us - PAs For Women Empowerment

OUR MISSION

Our objective is to advance the PA profession with a specific focus on advocating for PA Women.

We will uplift, support, and empower women in the PA profession to have visibility within their organizations and opportunities for advancement. We will ask past leaders to advise and grow powerful women leadership at the local, state, national and educational levels.

We are committed to sponsor, mentor and cultivate the next generation of pacesetters by empowering women to become leaders and become strong voices within the PA profession.

Through mentorship, community, education and resources, we will support PAs at every stage of their careers, so they can improve the health outcomes of their patients.

We will also advocate for all in the PA profession so that the profession remains a strong and open place and evolves to match the changes taking place in healthcare and medicine in general. A stronger PA profession will create stronger practitioners.

Our Vision: To promote the rise of women in healthcare and leadership. It is observed that women are under-represented in leadership positions and some career pathways, leading to inequality. We are devoted to bridging the gap between gender and leadership, eliminating barriers in the PA and medical profession to end gender inequality. We are also committed to helping create women clinicians who know and understand their power in our healthcare system. This can only be done through mentorship and education.
