Committees and Work Groups
LGBTQ* Advisory Committee
This committee provides recommendations to promote a LGBTQ affirming environment. The committee supports PRIDE week, the SAFE pledge initiative, and other programmatic initiatives. This committee is inclusive of faculty, staff, and learners within the College of Medicine.
At the College of Medicine, diversity is valued, inclusion is imperative, and belonging is foundational. By signing the SAFE pledge, wearing a SAFE badge, and displaying an electronic safe badge in your email signature, you are conveying your commitment to these ideas and announcing your commitment to share a safe space with your colleagues through tangible action.
