The vision of the American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) is to transform health care to achieve optimal health for everyone. To achieve this, the AAFP is taking a leadership role in addressing diversity and the social determinants of health as they impact individuals, families and communities. To help realize this vision, the AAFP launched The EveryONE Project to help family physicians take action and confront health disparities head on. The EveryONE Project focuses on providing family physicians and their practice teams with education and resources, advocating for health equity, promoting workforce diversity, and collaborating with other disciplines and organizations to advance health equity.
