Equity Advisors at the School of Medicine
The Equity Advisor Program at the School of Medicine provides faculty, staff, and students with confidential advice and referral to resources on the topics of equity, diversity, and inclusion. The only topic they cannot keep confidential are violations of University policy, including sexual harassment and violence, but they can refer you to confidential campus resources on those topics.
The equity advisors positions are currently vacant.
The advisors hold office hours, conduct trainings, have monthly catered lunch, and share some teachable items related to equity. They can also meet with your individually by request. The equity advisors will have no agenda, but will be there and ready to have a conversation with you. For more information, please email the advisors through their addresses on the right side of this page.
The program is a partnership with the UCR Office of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion.
