INTRODUCTION

The Society for Health and Human Values (SHHV) was officially established in 1969 as a membership organization for persons committed to human values in medicine. The SHHV is a professional organization whose primary objective was to encourage and promote informed concern for human values as an essential, explicit dimension of education for health professionals. To accomplish this objective, the Society sought, through a variety of endeavors: to facilitate communication and cooperation among professionals from diverse disciplines who share such an objective; to support critical and scholarly efforts to develop knowledge, concepts and programs dealing with the relation of human values to education for the health professional.

In early 1998, the SHHV along with the Society for Bioethics Consultation and the American Society for Bioethics, merged to form the American Society for Bioethics and Humanities.

THE COLLECTION

The Archives of the Society for Health and Human Values (SHHV) was transferred from the organization's president to the Moody Medical Library in February 1998. The collection consists of eight archival transfer boxes that occupy 11 linear feet of shelf space.
