Chapter Activities

The chapter will continue to foster humanism in our community through active community service projects coordinated by our chapter, an educational series on humanism for students, residents, faculty and community members.

We plan to work with our HSC Faculty Development office to engage faculty in all our health science disciplines (Nursing, Dentistry and Pharmacy) in role modeling and educating health professionals in the area of humanism.

• Events
• Summer Research Fellowship Grant

Through our Rural Health Education Partnership (RHEP) we plan to carry our message statewide into communities across West Virginia. West Virginia is the only state where all counties are included in Appalachia and our training in cultural diversity includes a unique module on the socioeconomic and social mores of this population.

The Gold Humanism Honor Society at West Virginia University School of Medicine was made possible with a grant from The Arnold P. Gold Foundation.
