NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF ADVISORS TO THE HEALTH PROFESSIONS (NAAHP)

NAAHP was established in 1974 to coordinate the activities and efforts of four independent regional associations, so that health professions advisors across the nation could function together and speak with one voice. It has become an effective national clearing house for advisor's opinions and news from allopathic and osteopathic medicine, as well as chiropractic, dental, nursing, optometry, pharmacy, physical therapy, physician assistant, podiatric, public health, and veterinary medical schools. In addition, NAAHP has established partnerships with health professions schools and their organizations through advisor liaisons and an advisory council comprised of representatives from these organizations.
