The California Academy of Family Physicians is a mid-sized nonprofit dedicated to advancing the field of family medicine in California. Founded in 1948, it has long supported both family physicians and their patients, emphasizing primary care. The organization counts a diverse membership—family physicians, residents, and medical students—totaling more than 8,000 individuals. Based in San Francisco, it is the largest chapter of the American Academy of Family Physicians and the state's leading primary care medical society. In January 2023, the Academy and its foundation announced the California Residency Program Collaborative to expand services to patients with substance use disorder. The group operates as a member-driven nonprofit in the California health care landscape, representing an organized voice for primary care and family medicine within the state.
