Office of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (ODEI)

Now more than ever, we must rely on our values of diversity, inclusion, respect, and collaboration. Our diverse perspectives, skills, and abilities are precisely what will allow us to effectively handle the current pandemic. By acting together, we will be able to marshal our collective resources to overcome this global threat.

Our Mission & Vision

Yale School of Medicine seeks to build and sustain a diverse community empowered to transform health care and biomedical science.

Through the Office of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion's education and training, learners, faculty, and staff will recognize and be able to contribute to Yale's equity efforts and address the systemic barriers to health care that the most vulnerable encounter.

We envision an inclusive community where everyone's voice and contribution are valued and respected. Through specific programs and initiatives, we aim to create a sense of belonging for all.
