Diversity & Inclusion
“Inclusion means more than just acknowledging and/or tolerating difference. The concept of inclusion encompasses acceptance and respect. Inclusion is a set of conscious actions that involve knowing how or learning to relate to those qualities and conditions that are different from our own.”

“We acknowledge that categories of differences are not always fixed but also can be fluid. We respect individual rights to self-identification, and we recognize that no one identity is intrinsically superior to another.”

Center for Moral Values in Health and Medicine
“Building on the vision and hope demonstrated by the Bella Rozencweig Hirsch Endowment for Biomedical Ethics, The Center for Moral Values in Health and Medicine is a collaborative and interdisciplinary unit that critically engages medical humanism, clinical bioethics, and social justice.”
