Get Involved!
PA Week is a chance to make our voices heard both virtually and in the community.
PAs on the Plaza has become a staple during PA Week, and this year, hundreds of PAs and PA students from across the country will gather in New York City to show their PA spirit and raise awareness of the profession on ABC’s Good Morning America and NBC’s TODAY Show Plazas. Join the PAs on the Plaza this October 11!
Plan a Project Access Event
Any PA with a passion for inspiring the next generation of PAs can set up a Project Access visit with a local school or community organization.
By introducing students to the PA profession and providing an opportunity to ask questions, we can work to ensure tomorrow’s PA workforce better represents the diversity of today’s patients.
Show Your PA Pride
Visit our PAs Go Beyond store and represent your profession proudly with t-shirts, polos, and sweatshirts. Bulk orders available – and check back for new items.
Make a Difference Today
