House Staff Diversity Committee
The UChicago House Staff Diversity Committee is a place for residents and fellows from all programs to come together for community and exchange of ideas. We provide a forum to meet and enhance leadership skills, as well as to learn about advocacy, self-awareness, social justice, and intercultural understanding. We believe the physician workforce should represent the diversity of our population. As such, we collaborate with University-wide initiatives, help to provide culturally sensitive medical education to our colleagues, and foster a sense of community among physicians of color at the University of Chicago.
