The Gold Humanism Honor Society (GHHS) was created in 2002 by The Arnold P. Gold Foundation to recognize role models of the human connection in healthcare. There are now 180 chapters and nearly 45,000 members. Prominent members of GHHS include Vice Admiral and United States Surgeon General Vivek H. Murthy, M.D., Flint water crisis whistleblower Mona Hanna-Attisha, M.D., and former and first-ever appointed California Surgeon General Nadine Burke-Harris, M.D. GHHS members are expected to serve as leaders of humanistic care throughout their careers.
GHHS members receive a unique pin with the Gold Mobius loop, which symbolizes the continuous bond of trust, respect, and communication that connects healthcare professionals with their patients when humanism is at the core of healthcare.
