OMCA is committed to the promotion of diversity within healthcare. In pursuit of these goals, we are dedicated to:
Support the academic and professional success of students who are underrepresented in medicine, including those who have demonstrated a commitment to working with underserved populations
Serve the health care needs of unserved and underserved communities by promoting an academic and clinical training environment that is diverse, collaborative and supportive
Enrich the academic and clinical training environment of the School of Medicine by actively promoting a diverse faculty and student body which in turn will better prepare medical students and residents to meet the needs of an increasingly diverse society.
Endorse the attributes of diversity and promote training in cultural sensitivity among medical students, residents, and faculty in caring for all patients irrespective of ethnicity, culture, gender, sexual orientation, religion, or disability.
