Powerpoint of presentation given at STFM Medical Student Education conference, Jan 2011, Houston, session of the same title. It looks at definitions of social justice, characteristics of the discipline of family medicine, and the interface. A major thrust is to catch the attention of students interested in social justice, and provide reasons why FM is a great specialty choice, offering both practices options and a theoretical/conceptual basis.
