More than 300 AHECs. One shared mission: strengthening the nation’s healthcare workforce.

When people think about AHECs, they often think of the incredible work happening in communities across the country.

But behind that work is a national network committed to strengthening the healthcare workforce.

The National AHEC Organization connects more than 300 AHEC centers and program offices that are working to recruit, train, and retain tomorrow's healthcare professionals.

Through advocacy, education, collaboration, and leadership development, we help bring AHEC leaders together to share ideas, solve challenges, and strengthen the impact of their work.

The strength of our organization comes from the members who make this network possible. Together, we're building a stronger healthcare workforce, one community at a time.
