From the Director… — Middle for the Learn about of Racism, Social Justice & Well being

From the Director:

Since becoming a member of the UCLA college in 2008, I’ve in my view hosted a viewing of the UNC Minority Well being Convention or subsidized a partnership convention at UCLA just about annually. This custom persisted during the Middle, starting in 2017 when the Middle used to be introduced. Pupil associate Taylor Rogers, a healthcrit and doctoral candidate in Well being Coverage & Control, agreed to function the inaugural pupil chair of the UCLA spouse web page for the convention. Since then, Millicent Robinson, Ale Cabral and Adrian Bacong have served on this position exceptionally.

This yr, in lieu of a separate UCLA spouse convention, we urge you to take part in a single or either one of the actions underneath, which each happen Friday, February 24, 2023. Taking part is necessary now not best to be informed, but additionally to really feel and to attach. Indubitably, connecting with one some other now—a duration of persisted violence and turbulence—is as necessary as ever.
