How You Can Help

Become an Active Participant in the Society for the Preservation of Physician Assistant History

You can do this by becoming a member, serving on a committee or task group, running for an office, attending meetings, and speaking to various groups about the Society’s and the PAHx Center’s goals and objectives.

Join the Society for the Preservation of PA History (SPPAHx).
Members of the Society are individuals who are cognizant of their obligation to preserve the history of the physician assistant profession and to educate other health professionals and the general public about the unique role that physician assistants play in providing team-oriented, quality and affordable health care services. There are four categories of membership: (1) fellow, (2) affiliate, (3) student and (4) honorary. Sixty percent of your membership dues go directly to support the work of the PA History Center and related projects.

Become an Organizational Annual Sponsor of the SPPAHx.
Society is open to PA Educational Programs, PA Student Organizations, PA State Chapters, PA Caucuses, PA Specialty Groups, and corporate, philanthropic and governmental sponsors desirous of furthering the Society’s mission and goals. Annual organizational sponsors are granted memberships in the Society at reduced fees. The Society’s Board of Directors determines the number of memberships and the amount of reduction in membership fees for each category of organizational membership. Each Organization is asked to name a representative to the Society to enhance communications. Sixty percent of the organizational annual sponsorship fee is placed in a trust fund to support the work of the PA History Center and related projects.
