The Christian Medical Association of India (CMAI) is a forum, a gathering place, an association and an instrument for social reform. It is a fellowship of doctors, nurses, administrators, chaplains and allied health professionals who assist India’s poorest and most deprived sections of society. CMAI believes that the Biblical faith calls and commands it to proclaim the Gospel and to heal the sick, the suffering and the downtrodden. .

Background

The history of CMAI dates back to 1905 when a group of missionaries serving in India, set up the Medical Missionary Association (MMA), a forum for supporting each other professionally and spiritually. In 1926, it was renamed as the Christian Medical Association of India. CMAI has done pioneering work in areas including leprosy, tuberculosis, malaria and HIV/AIDS.
