Association of American Medical Colleges [AAMC] Minority Medical Education
Project 3000 by 2000 / Health Professions Partnership Initiative (HPPI) The AAMC officially launched Project 3000 by 2000 in November of 1991 to address a worsening problem of minority underrepresentation in U.S. medical schools.

The initial goal of the Project was to dramatically increase the number of underrepresented minority students enrolling in U.S. medical schools. Since the problem of minority underrepresentation is common to all of the health professions and health science research specialties, the AAMC now collaborates through Project 3000 by 2000 with other health professions schools and graduate health science programs.
