Vital in Shaping the Future of Healthcare
We create and support a culture of diversity, equity and inclusion.
The goal of the Office of Diversity and Inclusion is to foster a culture of inclusivity that welcomes diversity and values equity. We actively work to ensure accountability of our learners and faculty through reporting, recognition and awards. The Council on Diversity Initiatives partners with our team to regularly assess our progress and gather feedback through climate surveys. We host a quarterly Diversity Health Series, monthly Diversity Dialogues, and special initiatives such as the Unity and Inclusion Project. In addition, our annual event provides an important platform to reinforce our core values and goals, and recognize diversity leaders and allies in our community.
Faces of UNR Med: Our Learners, Leaders and Alumni
At the University of Nevada, Reno School of Medicine, creating and supporting a culture of diversity, equity and inclusion is vital to our success as we train the next generation of physicians and health care professionals. We believe a diverse and culturally competent workforce will help meet the needs of an increasingly diverse patient population and address the critical issue of health care disparities and inequities.
