The Persian American Society for Health Advancement (PASHA) is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting healthcare and health education in the Iranian community. Founded in 2004 by students at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA, in conjunction with Dr. Mohamad Navab, professor of Cardiology, PASHA's mission is to make the Iranian community healthier.

PASHA's goals:

(1) to provide outreach to the Iranian community, locally and abroad, through educational programs, local clinics, and health awareness campaigns;

(2) to provide education enrichment programs and mentoring opportunities for students interested in health science professions;

(3) to provide a forum of communication for medical, dental, pharmacy, and other health related professionals

Our organization is open to all individuals from all cultures, races, religions, and backgrounds. In fact we want to have a diverse club so we can reach and help as many people as we can. So come to our meetings and learn more.
