2020 FM Summit Reimagined

The 2020 Summit will not take place in Los Angeles on August 29th as previously scheduled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We are re-imagining content and resources to bring to medical students and FM residents for 2020. More details to come!

The Summit

for Medical Students and FM Residents

The safety and well-being of our members is our top priority. In light of the COVID-19 pandemic and after much thoughtful discussion, including concerns about large gatherings, the CAFP Foundation Board of Trustees has decided to cancel the 2020 Family Medicine Summit and Residency Fair and proceed with developing robust virtual content for medical students and family medicine residents.

Though we are unable to gather in person this year, the California Academy of Family Physicians Foundation is excited to bring you content that will help you on your academic and professional journey in Family Medicine. From applying to residency and virtual interviewing to negotiating contracts and finance learning, we'll curate resources that are relevant for California's family physician workforce. Please stay tuned as we get these ready for you.
