The Appalachian Center for Wilderness Medicine is a regional non-profit dedicated to promoting quality medical care in limited resource ("wilderness") environments.  It serves the southern Appalachian region, including Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, North and South Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, and Alabama.  

The Center endeavors to improve wilderness medical practice, research and education in wilderness medicine through a collaborative model, designed to address unmet needs in our region. We serve as a nexus for regional wilderness medicine-oriented institutions, agencies, and individuals. Our prorgram includes field and classroom seminars, conferences, certification courses, networking/intercommunication, consultation services, research and other activities. Underlying all our activities is a commitment to promote quality activities already in place from other organizations, and to introduce new resources which are not yet present.
