Staff JEDI (Justice, Equity, Diversity, & Inclusion)
The Human Resources Group is in service to staff across the School of Medicine to build a more inclusive and equitable culture based on principles of justice.
As leaders in Stanford University’s School of Medicine, we deeply value and embody the principles of justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion (JEDI) both professionally and personally.

Students with Disabilities Task Force completes its review. A task force of faculty, students, and staff has created a report of recommendations to build a more inclusive and supportive campus community for students with disabilities. These recommendations include highlighting disability in the IDEAL initiative for all Stanford community members, including disabled staff.
The IDEAL Learning Journey has opened new open discussion group pilot sessions (limited to invite-only for now). The open discussion group aims to enhance and build on your learning experience in the workshops. In the pilot open discussion session, you can practice skills to hold inclusive, race-based work conversations. More updates are available in this article.
