The PAFP Foundation is a home for young leaders interested in pursuing family medicine as a career, students who have decided on practicing family medicine, and residents eager to learn and engage with the specialty.
Supporting the PAFP Foundation ensures that family medicine will continue to thrive in Pennsylvania, providing the highest quality of care to the Commonwealth’s nearly 13 million residents.

- Empowers family physicians through education and research

- Encourages family physicians to be leaders
- Enriches the quality and care of the family medicine specialty in the Commonwealth
The PAFP Foundation isn’t simply the future of the PAFP: it is the PAFP, working here and now to fulfill its mission to ensure physician-coordinated, personalized, and comprehensive quality health care for every Pennsylvanian.
