The Society was founded in 1967 to respond to the needs of family medicine educators. From a small beginning of 105 founding members, we have grown to a membership of more than 5,000 teachers of family medicine. Membership benefits include reduced conference rates, great networking opportunities, collaboration with colleagues, free subscription to Family Medicine Journal, and opportunities for professional development and leadership.
