ABOUT US

Creating Meaningful Impact

The Ethiopian Health Professionals Association (EHPA) is a non-profit organization founded in March 2010 by dedicated Ethiopian Health/medical professionals residing in DFW metroplex.

​

EHPA is voluntarily created for the benefit of our community, and through educating our community about the importance of a healthy lifestyle, aims to make a difference in the ways people live and empower them with the knowledge to attain an improved quality life.

​

We are united by our common dreams of strong, healthy society and meaningful participation in community. We are energized by our passionate belief that these dreams should be within reach of everyone, regardless of race, gender, faith or political status.

​

EHPA works in coordination with the MAAEC (Mutual Assistance Association of the Ethiopian Community Inc.) to promote health activities and seek funding opportunities to support such endeavors.

​

The Association has its own By-laws for its operations and managed by elected board members.
