Vaccines remain one of the most powerful tools in public health, but their impact depends on trust, science, and strong policy leadership. Join leading experts for an important conversation on how vaccines shape the health of our communities and the future of public health in America.

At the 2026 National Colloquium on African American Health, our panel “Vaccines Matter: Science, Policy, and Public Health Impact” will bring together nationally recognized leaders to discuss the science, policy implications, and real-world impact of vaccination on health equity.

This important discussion takes place March 20 during the National Medical Association National Colloquium on African American Health, March 19–22, 2026, at The Morrow Hotel in Washington, DC.

Be part of the national conversation where policy meets practice and physician leadership helps shape the future of health equity.

Today we celebrate the leadership, resilience, and impact of women who are shaping the future of medicine and advancing health equity across our communities.

On International Women's Day, the National Medical Association proudly recognizes the extraordinary women physicians, scientists, educators, and healthcare leaders who continue to break barriers, mentor the next generation, and champion equitable care for all.

Women in medicine are not only caring for patients but also leading research, shaping policy, and driving solutions that address health disparities and improve outcomes in underserved communities. Their voices, expertise, and dedication strengthen our profession and inspire future generations of physicians.

Today and every day, the NMA celebrates the women who are advancing medicine, advocating for justice in healthcare, and uplifting communities across the nation.

Today on World Obesity Day, we are reminded that obesity is a complex health issue affecting millions worldwide. Nearly 3 billion people are currently living with overweight or obesity, and that number could reach 4 billion by 2035. Childhood obesity is also rising rapidly, increasing the risk of serious conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, and certain cancers later in life.

At the National Medical Association, we believe addressing obesity requires understanding, prevention, and equitable access to care. Together, we can work toward healthier communities and change the trajectory of this global health challenge.
