Disabled Medical Student Alliance (DMSA)

About Us

DMSA is an affinity group and advocacy group for all Mount Sinai students (medical and graduate), regardless of identification or familiarity with disability. This includes those that self-identify with any visible and invisible disabilities, those that receive accommodations as a Mount Sinai student, and those that are still figuring out how their physical, sensory, cognitive, and/or mental health shapes their identity. You do not have to disclose your disability status, and allies are ALWAYS welcome.
