Group on Resident Affairs (GRA)

The Group on Resident Affairs provides information, networking, and professional development programs to help members meet their responsibilities as Graduate Medical Education leaders in AAMC-member medical school, hospitals, and academic societies. GRA also serves as a forum on GME issues such as institutional accreditation, GME costs and financing, resident recruitment and orientation, GME office organization, and GME core curriculum. It provides members the opportunity to contribute to AAMC policy development and advocacy on Graduate Medical Education.
