A Show Of Solidarity

January 17, 2022

Dear Colleagues:

We are saddened by the senseless attack on worshippers at the Congregation Beth Israel in Colleyville, Texas on January 15.

We condemn this act of antisemitism and wanted to convey our support for the Jewish community overall, but especially our colleagues across Yale School of Medicine, Yale University, and Yale New Haven Health System.

We encourage each of you to take a moment of reflection, continue to foster and embrace a diverse and inclusive culture throughout our day-to-day lives, and denounce such evil acts.

Sincerely,


Inginia Genao, MD, FACP
