What is HMA?
A convergence of health promotion and religious beliefs.
The Health Ministries Association (HMA) encourages, supports and empowers leaders who integrate faith with the promotion of health and wholeness in local communities.
Our membership is made up of health ministers, faith community nurses, clergy, chaplains, faculty, and program leaders who have developed and provide health ministries in diverse faith communities. . . . read more . . .

The initial work group members are:
- Nancy Romanchek

The initial work group members have been meeting since March for strategic planning and to review ANA and HMA policies to ensure adherence to workgroup constituency compliance considerations.
Interviews are currently being scheduled for selection of additional work group participants, who are active HMA members with at least 2 years of membership, to complete the work group committee formation. Next steps include compiling the signed agreement forms from selected new work group participants.
