Founded in 1951, ACOG is the premier professional membership organization for obstetrician–gynecologists. The College produces practice guidelines for health care professionals and educational materials for patients, provides practice management and career support, facilitates programs and initiatives to improve women’s health, and advocates for members and patients.

ACOG’s mission is to support our members to improve the lives of all people seeking obstetric and gynecologic care, their families, and communities. 

ACOG’s vision is an equitable world in which exceptional and respectful obstetric and gynecologic care is accessible to all.
