Definition of Diversity:
In the CCOM, we are mindful of all aspects of human differences and define diversity in the broadest sense to mean inclusion of all persons, regardless of ethnic and racial background, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, religious beliefs, ability, language, citizenship status, age, veteran status, socio-economic status, and other attributes, who contribute to a welcoming, inclusive culture across the enterprise.
Faculty and staff make use of the rich mix of cultural resources available through Carver College of Medicine programs and organizations. The Office of Health Parity assists departments in recruitment efforts to attract individuals from diverse backgrounds.
We are available to support faculty and staff through:
- Welcome and community-building events
- Career coaching and professional development activities
- Educational programs
