Abstract
The purpose of this chapter is to highlight the history and rapid growth of the LHS+ communities in the southeast region. The vast immigration to this region from outside the U.S. and the surrounding events are the context in which the students of the LMSA were raised and planted the seeds for LHS+-identified individuals in medicine. As the region continues to grow, there is hope and evidence that the tide of progress will continue to rise in the Southeast region.
