The American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) Foundation’s $16,500 Family Medicine Cares Resident Service Award (RSA) creates an opportunity for first- and second-year family medicine residents to fulfill a desire to address health disparities by tackling the health needs of the underserved in their local communities. Up to two awards will be presented annually.

All first- and second-year family medicine residents who are members of the AAFP are eligible to apply. The 12-month service project runs January 1 – December 31.

For more information on eligibility and requirements, check out the RSA award page. Applications are being accepted through Monday, September 30.
