Association of Accredited Naturopathic Medical Colleges
- Association of Accredited Naturopathic Medical Colleges
The Association of Accredited Naturopathic Medical Colleges is a nonprofit association that represents the six North American naturopathic medical schools accredited by the U.S. Department of Education. These superior accredited colleges meet both federal and academic standards:
*"Bastyr University" - Seattle, Wash.
*"Boucher Institute of Naturopathic Medicine (BINM)" - Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
*"Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine (CCNM)" - Toronto, Ontario, Canada
*"National College of Natural Medicine (NCNM)" - Portland, Ore.
*"Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine & Health Sciences (SCNM)" - Phoenix, Ariz.
*"University of Bridgeport College of Naturopathic Medicine (UBCNM)" - Bridgeport. Conn.
The mission of the association is to "propel and foster the naturopathic medical profession by actively supporting the academic efforts of accredited and recognized schools of naturopathic medicine". [ [http://www.naahp.org/PDFs/HealthProfPDFs/aanmc.pdf Microsoft Word - NAAHPHealthProfsUpdateAANMC2007-06-04.doc ] ] The AANMC works actively at the state and provincial level promoting licensing efforts, advocating increased public safety and overall reduction of health care costs in the naturopathic, integrative and CAM communities. In the recent years the association has contributed significantly to reclassifying the ND degree as a U.S. first professional, increasing the federal student loan amounts, and improving the licensing laws of New York, Illinois, District of Columbia, and the U.S. territories of Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
