Founded in 2006, the Society of Health Policy Young Professionals (“The Society”) is a registered 501(c)3 non-profit, non-partisan, volunteer-led organization designed to meet the diverse needs of DC-area young professionals interested in the health, health care, and health policy fields. The Society seeks to help young professionals forge meaningful and long-term professional relationships, offer a wealth of career-related information and tools, and provide regularly scheduled social and career-development events.
Our mission is to bring together professionals in health policy. Our organization seeks to provide opportunities for networking and professional development to create DC’s next generation of health policy leaders.
The Society is a unique organization aimed at:
-Fostering new relationships among young professionals in the health, health care, and health policy fields;
-Providing a forum for networking and socializing;
-Organizing professional development, educational, skill-building, and community service events; and
-Connecting young professionals to relevant career and networking opportunities, including access to senior-level health policy professionals.
As the inter-related fields of health care delivery and health policy grow, so does the need to identify and highlight future leaders in these fields. The Society, therefore, aims to create a sustainable, organization that forges meaningful and long-term professional relationships and provides career-development opportunities. To achieve this vision, the Society continues to actively recruit members, increase its visibility, and develop strategic partnerships.
