Albert Einstein College of Medicine’s office of diversity enhancement is committed to developing a broadly diverse cadre of clinicians, researchers, and educators who promote health equity and address health disparities in the Bronx and beyond. Our office creates a safe and empathetic space where everyone is seen and heard. We cultivate learning opportunities, training, and conversations that promote a consciousness of community where all belong and perpetuate the equal and fair treatment of all human beings. We clearly and without any reservation disapprove of any form of bias, hate, injustice, or violence. We affirm our advocacy for all people no matter of age, gender, ethnicity, socioeconomic background, religion, identity, or ability. We aim to resolve to be change agents for peace, equality, and respect.

Our office supports Einstein’s strategic plan for excellence in diversity and inclusion and provides guidance for diversity initiatives and activities on campus. If you have questions, please reach out to any member of our team individually, email diversity.enhancement@einsteinmed.edu, or call 718-430-3091.

Land Acknowledgement

We acknowledge that Albert Einstein College of Medicine is located on Lenape (luh-nah-pey) homelands and waterways and are grateful for the resources this land offers us in pursuing our goals and ideals. We acknowledge that Indigenous peoples are the original stewards of the land we live and work on and that there has been a tragic erasure of Indigenous people and their culture in the Bronx and beyond. We recognize the unique challenges and injustices that Indigenous peoples have faced historically and still encounter today. We honor the diverse cultures and histories of Indigenous peoples. We seek to increase our awareness and understanding of their cultures and communities, and we work to eliminate injustice in our educational and professional environment.
