Welcome

The Board of Culture, Climate and Belonging is focused on the College of Nursing and Health Professions' commitment to social justice, reduction of health disparities, calling attention to health inequities. There are abundant opportunities to become involved in making substantive and lasting changes in the practices, policies and the educational and cultural experiences and outcomes at the college and beyond.

The Board of Culture, Climate and Belonging was formed to start much needed conversations and to empower all of us to take steps toward change. The board is comprised of faculty, professional staff and both undergraduate and graduate students. The College of Nursing and Health Professions enriches the educational—and human—experience. We seek to create an institution in which our faculty, staff and students reflect the complexity of our city, nation and global communities. We seek to be inclusive and meet the needs of the diverse populations whom we teach, collaborate with and serve as we work together to promote health and eliminate health disparities.
