Step 10: STATEMENT OF OUR COMMITMENT TO DIVERSITY EQUITY AND INCLUSION

Family Medicine Midwest (FMM) is committed to attracting, retaining, and developing outstanding family physicians in the Midwest. We recognize that systems of oppression caused harm in historically marginalized communities, including but not limited to indigenous peoples and their occupied lands, communities of color, LGBTQ+ communities, people of varying abilities and body sizes, immigrant communities and others historically excluded from medicine. These systems of oppression are embedded in our public health, health care, and medical education systems in which family physicians live and work.

At FMM, we are dedicated to continuing to educate ourselves and our colleagues on the impact systems of oppression have on our work as family medicine educators, including, but not limited to, gathering information, identifying disparities in our activities and the root causes for these disparities.

We recognize we will make mistakes in doing this necessary work, and will push ourselves to grow, learn, and act. We are dedicated to attracting, retaining, and developing outstanding family physicians for the future to provide the most equitable and comprehensive care for all.

Please indicate if the Primary Presenter or co-presenter(s) identify with any underrepresented group.
