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". The AANMC works 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 influencing the licensing laws of New York, Illinois, District of Columbia, and the U.S. territories of Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.

Famous quotes containing the word schools:
“In schools all over the world, little boys learn that their country is the greatest in the world, and the highest honor that could befall them would be to defend it heroically someday. The fact that empathy has traditionally been conditioned out of boys facilitates their obedience to leaders who order them to kill strangers.”
—Myriam Miedzian, U.S. author. Boys Will Be Boys, ch. 3 (1991)
