Psychiatry EDI Council

We formed our department-wide Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Council to be in line with and in support of the efforts of the UW Medicine Office of Healthcare Equity and UW’s Diversity Council. The Council is led by Mark Snowden, MD, MPH, and Ty Lostutter, PhD, and its initial work will focus on 1) communicating about initiatives and best practices being developed by existing organizations and committees in the department; 2) diversifying the faculty and staff; and 3) promoting at the department level ways to improve the climate of the department.   The Council is open to anyone in the department – faculty, staff and trainees – and you can attend a meeting to see what it’s about without committing to ongoing participation. Representatives from Centers and groups with established EDI committees are encouraged to attend to help us learn from each other and share information. Please reach out to Mary Pyper (mpyper@uw.edu) with any questions. Event interval: Single day event. Accessibility Contact: Mary Pyper, mpyper@uw.edu. Event Types: Diversity Equity Inclusion. Meetings. Friday, October 11, 2024, 9:00 AM – 9:50 AM. Zoom - specifics to follow.
