The Need for NMF

Play Video

Health professionals from the very communities enduring the greatest health challenges are needed more than ever to address the historical and present-day causes of mistrust in health care. NMF is reducing the barriers to medical education and investing in the health care leaders of tomorrow to ensure better health outcomes for all communities.

“NMF empowers its scholars with the training, resources, and speakers necessary to become community health advocates and effectively navigate medical school. I can only imagine the kinds of projects that will continue to be developed by NMF scholars, because when you give intelligent people the right resources, funding, and platform to do something good for others, that is a recipe for change.”
