Office for Diversity Inclusion and Community Partnership

The Office for Diversity Inclusion and Community Partnership (DICP) focuses on two broad areas at Harvard Medical School: minority faculty development and educational outreach. The DICP Office aims to ensure that Harvard Medical School truly reflects the community it serves by promoting increased recruitment, retention and advancement of diverse faculty, particularly underrepresented minority faculty, overseeing all diversity activities involving faculty, trainees, students and staff, and coordinating partnerships with community groups and local schools. In addition, DICP’s work includes research and technical assistance that leads to national, regional and local strategies that support workforce diversity and inclusion in the biomedical sciences.

Minority Faculty Development Program

Established in 1990, the DICP Minority Faculty Development Program seeks to: increase the number of faculty at Harvard Medical School from populations underrepresented in medicine; increase the number of minority physicians and scientists who undertake their post-graduate medical education at one of the 18 Harvard Medical School-affiliated institutions; establish model programs for the development of minority faculty with an emphasis on mentoring and leadership; and create programs designed to reach out to the pre-college and college populations with the goal of bringing outstanding underrepresented minority students into the pipeline. This year, the Minority Faculty Development Program (MFDP) within the Office for Diversity Inclusion and Community Partnership at Harvard Medical School celebrates 25 years of achieving excellence through diversity.

She seeks to broaden the national health debate to include not only universal access to high quality health care but also attention to the social determinants of health and equity (including poverty and racism, respectively). As a methodologist, she has developed new ways for comparing full distributions of data (rather than means or proportions) in order to investigate population-level risk factors and propose population-level interventions. An assistant professor at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health from 1994 to 2000, Dr. Jones is currently an adjunct associate professor at both the Morehouse School of Medicine and the Rollins School of Public Health at Emory University and president of the American Public Health Association.Sponsored by HMS/DICPContact: teresa_carter@hms.harvard.edu | 617-432-4697
