In light of our commitment to eliminating health disparities, the Association of Schools of Public Health (ASPH) has begun an initiative to provide information about the health disparities research activities of our member schools and diversity-related issues in public health. This initiative is a venue for sharing our schools’ current health disparities research activities, as well as providing important information that will help in diversifying our schools’ faculty and student body, since these are necessary steps toward advancing our schools’ capacity to eliminate U.S. health disparities.

The goals of this resource center are to:

  • Disseminate best practices for minority faculty and student recruitment and retention
  • Facilitate increased research about health disparities
  • Encourage development and implementation of multicultural perspectives across curricula
  • Increase the cultural competence of faculty, staff and students
  • Create and maintain partnerships with minority health professions schools and other minority-based institutions

We invite you to take a look at our current sections, which include:

ASPH will continually be updating the website, so please visit frequently. Sections to be included on the website in the near future are Consultant Database, Employment Database, Legislative Initiatives, Student Recruitment & Retention Information, and a Bulletin Board.

Your invaluable help and feedback will be greatly appreciated. Please contact Gillian Silver at diversity@asph.org, with your suggestions and/or comments.
