The Center For a Healthy Maryland

The Center for a Healthy Maryland advances health and well-being across the state by supporting, educating, and empowering the people who care for and live in our communities. Through public health programming, youth career development, domestic violence prevention, and physician wellness, we work in partnership with local leaders to build safer, healthier, and more equitable communities for all Marylanders.

Physician Health Programs

The Maryland Physician Health Program assists, supports and provides advocacy for physicians as part of a
confidential process to address conditions that affect their ability to practice medicine. The Dan H. McDougal,
MD Fund
 provides grants-in-aid to physicians unable to afford the myriad costs associated
with rehabilitation and treatment services.

   

Community Wellness & Safety

The Domestic Violence Program conducts training and technical assistance to health care professionals. It
recently began providing Continuing Education Units, and launched a new website, HealthandDV.org.

   

Maryland's Healthcare Future

The Bridge the Gap Program addresses the overall physician shortage while creating pathways for
underrepresented groups is essential for building a diverse and inclusive healthcare workforce capable of
meeting the needs of all communities.
