Mission Statement
American Muslim Health Professionals (AMHP) is a national nonprofit organization focused on professional development, health education centered around the unique needs of American-Muslims, and advocacy for minorities and underserved communities. Since the organization’s founding in 2004, AMHP has been at the forefront of public health and policy issues—mobilizing Muslims during the health reform debates at the start of the Obama Administration, championing community-based anti-obesity measures, creating resources for disabled Muslims and elevating the discussion on mental health. AMHP is proud to work with a variety of interfaith health coalitions. AMHP leadership has contributed to the Washington Post’s On Faith blog, Belief.net, First Lady’s blog, Huffington Post and numerous local publications. In November 2014, AMHP celebrated its 10-year anniversary and made great strides in each of its three areas of focus: health promotion, advocacy and career development.
