About the Conference
Since 2009, Doctors for America has been a national movement rooted in a simple, powerful conviction: health is a right, not a privilege. We are clinicians, advocates, and changemakers united by the belief that an equitable, evidence-based health system is not only possible — it is necessary.
This June, we gather in Washington, DC under the theme "Making Good Trouble" — a call to action inspired by the legacy of those who refused to accept injustice as inevitable. The DFA National Leadership Conference is where the movement comes together to learn, strategize, and organize. It is where clinicians become advocates, and advocates become leaders.
What to Expect
The National Leadership Conference brings together hundreds of physicians, health care professionals, medical students, advocates, and public health leaders from across the country to mobilize around pressing health policy issues, strengthen advocacy skills, and build momentum for a healthier, more just future.
