We recognize that all members of our Community must feel empowered to do their best work and bring great ideas to fruition, and MCPHS is fully committed to prioritizing diversity, ensuring equity, and practicing inclusivity in all that we do.

    Bringing together an inclusive cross-section of people from around the University to serve on faculty, staff, and student teams that develop DEI goals and objectives.

  • Indigenous Peoples’ Day at MCPHS

    MCPHS respectfully acknowledges that the land that we learn, work, live, and commune on is the original N’dakinna (homelands) of Indigenous People who have stewarded it throughout hundreds of generations and are still connected to this land on which we gather.

  • Resources

    We hope these resources will encourage reflection and dialogue to bring us closer to social justice.

I am MCPHS: How I’ve Changed
