Lifestyle Medicine Interest Groups

Lifestyle Medicine Interest Groups (LMIGs) are organizations that address the growing need for lifestyle medicine at the academic and health systems level. LMIG leaders host events informed by evidence-based lifestyle medicine to support healthy habits for trainees, staff, and the local community. With exclusive benefits and support from ACLM, LMIGs have been established across the country and have been instrumental in advocating for curriculum reform within many health professional training programs.

Start a LMIG in Four Easy Steps:

Access the LMIG Toolkit and review the “How to Start a New LMIG Page”
Identify an advisor. Having trouble? Search our membership directory to see if there are any faculty at your institution who share your passion for lifestyle medicine
Gather a group of interested peers to serve in leadership positions (President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer, Social Media Manager, etc.)
Apply for one of the ACLM orientation cohorts (July, October, March)
