Bridging the Gap: Advancing Health Equity through Mentorship, Advocacy, and Scholarship

2026 Auxiliary to the National Medical Association Convention

Welcome to the registration portal for the ANMA’s 2026 National Convention, taking place on the beautiful island of Puerto Rico—an unincorporated territory of the United States designated as a commonwealth. Located just a thousand miles southeast of Miami, Puerto Rico offers a vibrant blend of culture, history, and breathtaking scenery.

This year’s convention promises an unforgettable experience. Attendees will enjoy island tours, salsa classes, luncheons, golf tournaments, and more. Our signature events—including the annual prayer breakfast, educational workshops, marketplace shopping, and elegant banquets—will also be available to all registrants.

We encourage you to register early so we can plan with intention and ensure an exceptional experience for everyone. Convenient links for registration, hotel accommodations, and tours are provided for your ease.

We can’t wait to welcome you to Puerto Rico.

Warm regards,

Mavis

President, ANMA
