Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

Message from the Chief Diversity Officer:
“At The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center and Ohio State health science colleges, we aim to be an example of inclusive excellence, where all staff, faculty and learners have an opportunity to thrive in service to our patients and to the community.

Racism is a social determinant of health that we do not condone. Efforts are underway to build upon our existing foundation of inclusive excellence work to uproot beliefs and facilitate changing of attitudes that manifest as institutionalized, personally mediated or internalized forms of racism.

This new website will serve as a resource for you to identify opportunities for self-directed learning and provide diversity, equity and inclusion updates across Ohio State Wexner Medical Center and the health science colleges.

Please be sure to monitor this website for Ohio State Wexner Medical Center Diversity Council and Health Sciences Diversity and Inclusion updates on initiatives to thwart racism and advance the values, mission and vision of The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center and health science colleges.”
