Committees supported by our office
The committees within our office serve different functions but with the same mission of achieving UC Davis Health organizational goals of improving diversity awareness and inclusion within our workforce. Core goals of the committees focus on:
- Making recommendations regarding welcoming and multidisciplinary approaches.
- Examining programs, activities, policies, publications, and practices to determine intentional or unintentional exclusiveness.
- Engaging members in scholarly dialogues, as well as evidence-based instruction and practices that reflect the vision and mission of our office.
The intended outcome for these committee groups is to support multidisciplinary learning environments where faculty, staff and students can reach their full potential by contributing their skills, abilities and creativity with excellence.
Advisory Councils are open to all employees and allies who support and are committed to this mission.
