The Committee on Diversity in Medicine is responsible for implementing the Society’s policy on ethnic diversity through education, outreach, and collaboration. The committee will work to create opportunities for more diversity within the medical profession and heighten awareness of cultural practices and barriers to care. It also serves as a resource for MMS leadership on physician work force issues and disparities in health care.
